Overview

"Rosemary Huisman writes from where she is. This does not necessarily mean a romantic concern with self-expression, but it does mean paying attention to her surroundings-natural, social, political. It especially includes paying attention to the language used by other people. The accuracy and clarity of what she aims for is not some objective truth, but it is what is truthful for her, to her perception and understanding. ""This is a world wonderfully changed by Rosemary Huisman's fine observation, playful intelligence and true feeling. Her poetry gives us what we need: it helps us recognise ourselves even as it constantly surprises us. A pleasure to read-and read again."" - Noel Rowe ""I felt a great admiration for how much of the world is lucidly present in Huisman's poetry. Places, characters and remembrances are all made vital and rich in these clear, shapely poems. Her clean approaches and her incisive, guiding voice make her a poet of power and authority. The delicacy and poise of her language is a delight, and her range of interests makes this a dynamic collection. Huisman's poems leap with life."" - Judith Beveridge"
