Furthersouth
Author(s): Lindsay Pope
The coast is a scribble. Stars are stored in a wooden box on my shelf. It is more black than white here. Like algebra but colder.
The hut's walls are a ghetto of mice. Those I catch become whiskers of smoke in the firebox.
I attend to the scratching radio.
This is not my dream.
Pope's new collection of poems is informed by the human history of New Zealand's sub-Antarctic islands.
"These taut, sparely written poems trust the reader to engage with their carefully reconstructed and re-imagined histories histories, incidents and characters." - Harry Ricketts
