Description

*Winner of The Age Book of the Year for The Brokenness Sonnets & Other Poems* At the Foot of the Mountain contains several stunning sequences, including the title sequence, which is the highly allusive and tightly wrought result of a surprising collision between Dante's Divine Comedy and Kafka's The Metamorphosis. The poems reveal a searching, idiosyncratic mind; they are linguistically acrobatic, disruptive and delightful, and often darkly funny.
