Inhaltsangabe

Post-it notes and shopping lists, Japanese monks, and children’s lungs: AUP New Poets 6 is a deep dive into the rich diversity of New Zealand poetry today. 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 Kemp’s slow-paced attentive readings of place and people, in a selection moving between Japan and New Zealand, to the velocity of Vanessa Crofskey’s 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 Stewart’s 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.
