Opus

<p>'<em>Opus: a life with music</em> is a stunning collection beautifully written and withheld.' - Libby Sommer</p><p>'Through music we can say what we didn't even know we felt. - Ed Le Brocq. What more powerful way to reflect on your journey of life than entwined with the memory of music. Exquisitely wrought <em>Opus</em> gives us snapshots sometimes softened sometimes shocking but always honed and beautifully crafted revealing a deep perception and intimacy as we have come to know of Pip Griffin's poetry.' - Colleen Keating</p><p>'Pip Griffin's <em>Opus</em> is a gently written verse memoir of her childhood in New Zealand to her mature years in Australia. References to Chopin Mahler Gustav Holst Elvis Presley and many others justify its subtitle a life with music. Touches of sadness including her partner's death and her mother's thwarted dreams balance the collection's positive tone. This is poetry to read over a few winter evenings by the fire or summer afternoons in the shade of a tree.' - Norm Neill</p><p><br></p>
