Stunning Debut Of The Repairing Of A Life
Paperback Edition: 1
Simple Broken Beautiful is the title on a notebook of poetry written by Leigh Davis in 2008. This was during radiotherapy treatment following surgery for a brain tumour, which was affecting his ability to express himself in words. The notebook writing was the beginning of a work that developed into a long poem called 'Stunning Debut of the Repairing of a Life'. The resulting manuscript won The Kathleen Grattan Award for Poetry 2009, judged by Ian Wedde.
