Description
At the Point of Seeing is the extraordinary debut collection from Otepoti Dunedin poet Megan Kitching. Poised, richly observant and deftly turned, Kitching's poems bestow a unique attention upon the world. Her eye is finely attuned to the well-trodden yet overlooked the places between 'dirt and thumb' or 'together and alone' and especially the weedy, overgrown and pest-infested places where the human impulse to name, control and colonise meet natures life force and wild exuberance.
