Aup New Poets 6
Paperback Edition: 1
Relaunched under the editorship of Anna Jackson in 2019, AUP New Poets 6 includes substantial selections from the poetry of Ben Kemp, Vanessa Crofskey and Chris Stewart.
We move from Kemps slow-paced attentive readings of place and people, in a selection moving between Japan and New Zealand, to the velocity of Vanessa Crofskeys fierce, funny, intimate and political poetry, which takes the form of shopping lists, Post-it Notes, graphs, erasures, a passenger arrival card and even *poetry*, and finally to Chris Stewarts visceral take on the domestic, the nights cut to pieces by teething, the gravity of love and the churn of time.
AUP New Poets 6 is an arresting introduction to the rich diversity of contemporary New Zealand poetry.
