Beginning in Sight

<p><em style=color: rgba(105 105 105 1)>Beginning in Sight </em><span style=color: rgba(105 105 105 1)>is Theodore Ell's first poetry collection. It brings together work written over more than ten years tapping into the memories life-stories and mirror-images that resist time and recouple bygone experience to the drifting world of today. The poems branch out from Ell's original home of Sydney into its hinterland the coast and the Hunter snatching moments of respite and pleasure in troubled times before finding new bearings in the Canberra region. Haunted by the presence of vanished lives and histories these are poems of perseverance endurance and a past that seems to know what is coming.</span></p>
