Finding My Feet - An Anthology of Poetic Voices
“Finding My Feet is a democratic free-for-all of voices in free verse and rhyme, of passionate statements, a Rosetta Stone of the people of Naarm/Melbourne – with their mixture of descents: Indigenous, including the great Tony Birch, European, Asian, Middle-Eastern Poets and others— gritty and speaking from the heart. I am bowled over by Lisa Gorton’s amazing “Aphrodite of Melos” and by Litsa Nikolopoulou-Goga, who turned 90 this year, relishing “this miracle of change,” and tells us, “I just sit and am embroidered by raindrops.”
