Inhaltsangabe

Riverside comprises Ray Liversidge’s work over the last 21 years. It includes selections from three books of poetry, a collection of poems and flash fiction, a verse novel, a chapbook, Issue One of Triptych Poets, plus 28 new poems and flash fictions. From his first collection, Obeying the Call, Liversidge's writing was recognised as "of a high order, reminding us of poetry’s origins in ceremony and its ability to name and locate experience." (Island Magazine, 2003). Since then, Liversidge has experimented with various genres in a verse novel described by Jordie Albiston as a “true postmodern epic”. Using a version of the Spenserian stanza he celebrates the lives of 29 poets. In a bilingual book, he lamented the massacre of 642 people in France by the Nazis in WW2. His marriage breakdown is eloquently chronicled in a suite of poems. Of late, he has embraced flash fiction after finding a volume by Alex Epstein at a book sale. Riverside offers the reader the opportunity to connect with or rediscover previous work and encounter new writing in this formidable addition to the Australian literary canon.
