Description
Owen Leeming's 1972 collection Venus is Setting, with its centrepiece 'The Priests of Serrabonne', was marked for praise by Kendrick Smithyman, Vincent O'Sullivan and James K. Baxter, but it would take the best part of five decades until his next collection was published.
Latitudes: New & Selected Poems contains selections from Venus is Setting and 2019's Through Your Eyes, which comprised poems from the 1960s and 1970s along with others written in more recent years. It also includes a section of hitherto uncollected earlier poems and another of new work offered for the first time.
Leeming's early poems remain fresh and energetic, marked by their rare reconciliation of the playful and the serious. The recent poems sparkle intensified brio and bumptiousness, by which readers are offered the world freshly rendered in words with an utterly uncommon intelligence and sensuousness.
Charting a course from youthful disillusionment to celebratory old-age, Owen Leeming's Latitudes: New & Selected Poems will surprise, delight and challenge readers of poetry with its open-eyed love of life and language.
