New Poets is a celebration of three distinct new voices. The volume showcases the considerable talents of emerging poets Emma Rooksby, J.P. Quinton and Scott-Patrick Mitchell. In Emma Rooksby's 'Time Will Tell' we enter a realm both distinctly physical and gesturing beyond the here and now.
Scott-Patrick Mitchell's '(where n equals) a determinacy of poetry' is an intense and exuberant work, charged with bodily and erotic energy, the power of scent, taste and the visual, as well as joyful contemplation of love and connection. J.P. Quinton's 'Little River' demonstrates a passionate engagement with the human and the natural in his evocations of life around the Swan River. Surprising, confronting, colloquial, these poems are at times humorous and at others deeply moving.
