Sinopsis

A work that shifts from high to low, philosophical, to ethical, to comic, in Bolton',s well known, and highly praised, flexible style. A new collection from a prolific poet.Gee these poems be limber, you think, flipping thru the pages, admiring, here, the cut of this poem',s jib, there the poise & rancour of another. For this is a book that might save your heart, a book to pull from your jacket pocket at some moment of last judgement & wave at the gate keeper, a tall and bearded dude, surely a hipster - avant la lettre but also after it - outside of time in fact, where final judgements are, and truth and poetry. You wave it at him. It',s a talisman, dude, you sau. ',An earnest,', says the figure, ',of your capacity for cool and rigour?', He nods and you smile. You both smile - and he waves you in.Praise for Ken Bolton: ... bitchy, dreamy, acute ... a deeply serious - & witth * clmost self-canceling - consciousness at work - Lynn McCredden, HeatEasy to appreciate, lightheartedness is not a natural or easy gift, and Bolton',s - brilliantly articulate - shimmers with a sense of being amusing & sort of/crooked in relation to things. - Nicholas Birns, Transnational LiteratureAbout the author: A gay, light-hearted bastard, Ken Bolton cuts a moodily romantic figure within the dun Australian literary landscape, his name inevitably conjuring perhaps that best known image of him, bow-tie askew, lipstick-smeared, grinning cheerfully at the wheel of his 1958 Jaguar D-type, El Cid. Born in Sydney in 1949 he works at the Australian Experimental Art Foundation in Adelaide and edits Little Esther books.
