Finding The Centre: 'English' Poetry After Empire, Mark Williams, Alan Riach
Finding The Centre: 'English' Poetry After Empire, Mark Williams, Alan Riach
Kunapipi
The Australian poet Les Murray has talked about 'the dreadful tyranny where only certain privileged places are regarded as the centre and the rest are provincial and nothing good can be expected to come out of them.
