Star Reverse

<p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Verbal precision is the best way to describe this compelling and daunting collection where poetry and all the known demands of writing poetry are constantly deconstructed. In a no-nonsense approach devoid of self-pity Strang utilises wry acerbic humour coupled with a fine technical skill to debunk commonly held perceptions on an array of topics including femicide and gender-based violence physical and mental illness/death childhood and aging sex and sexuality and armed conflict and political violence. It is a complex brilliant volume of poetry blending the intellectual with the intuitive utilising an array of inter-texts including fairy tales the tarot the Bible and art in various forms interwoven with primordial wisdoms and mythology.</span></p>
