Australia has a rich history of feminist poetry but there is no one kind of feminist voice.
The seventy new poems commissioned for this anthology demonstrate a complexity of social, political, and cultural visions. Contemporary Australian Feminist Poetry is united by the shared effort to shape ‘responsible writing’ on everyday subject matter: family, fear, dreams, love, literary inheritance, the body, power, fun, pain, metaphors of self.
Each of these poems cut its own path through language. Together, their politics are restless, inextricably tied to the now.
Featuring new work by Lisa Gorton, Pam Brown, Gig Ryan, Fiona Wright, LK Holt, David McCooey, Felicity Plunkett, Sarah Holland-Batt, Jill Jones, Magan Magan, Bella Li, Jo Langdon, Michelle Cahill, Melinda Bufton, Chloe Callistemon, Kate Middleton, Ella O’Keefe, Claire Gaskin, Ania Walwicz, joanne burns, Michelle Leber, and many more.
