Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. **Shortlisted, NSW Premier's Literary Awards 2023, Kenneth Slessor Prize for Poetry**The title of this collection, Revenants, suggests spirits and ghosts who return to the human world through dream and art, not to haunt it, but to remind the living that the present and the past are intertwined. At the heart of the collection is a series of poems about the poets father, a Melbournian who travelled and worked in Asia as a young man, who married the poets mother in Bangkok, and whose life and death are commemorated here. The poems have settings in Asia, Australia, Hawaii, and France, which has become the authors second home. They reflect on the legacy of colonialism, not as theory, but as inherited experience. In them the poet himself may be thought of as a revenant, sharing his awareness of secret histories and local knowledge, stories of migration, the vestiges of forgotten people and places.'The reader is drawn into the palimpsests of hybrid lives and texts by Aitkens weaving of droll sentiment, unsentimental political awareness, and tender observations of passing humanity and nature.'

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. This ground-breaking anthology collects poems written by Australian poets who are migrants, their children, and refugees of Asian heritage, spanning work that covers over three decades of writing. Inclusive of hitherto marginalised voices, these poems explore the hyphenated and variegated ways of being Asian Australian, and demonstrate how the different origins and traditions transplanted from Asia have generated new and different ways of being Australian. This anthology highlights the complexity of Asian Australian interactions between cultures and languages, and is a landmark in a rich, diversely-textured and evolving story. Timely and proactive this anthology fills existing cultural gaps in poetic expressions of home, travel, diaspora, identity, myth, empire and language.'A new generation of Asian-Australian diasporic writers. explore a fluid national identity that refuses to be as circumscribed as some Australians would like.' - Robin Gerster, A Companion to Australian Literature Since 1900'Asian and Australian writing, rather than regarding each other at a distance, might engage in a dialogue. a more precise mapping of Asia-Australia, one that understands this relation as both external and internal, present within Australian writing itself.' - Tim Yu, Cordite 'A new generation of Asian-Australian diasporic writers. explore a fluid national identity that refuses to be as circumscribed as some Australians would like.' - Robin Gerster, A Companion to Australian Literature Since 1900 This item is printed on demand.
