The White Boat. Barca alba - Katherine Gallagher
In this wide-ranging, very moving collection, Katherine Gallagher ventures from Australia to Europe in illuminating poems that address issues of travel, identity and belonging, of climate-change, war and destruction, and what it is to be human in this 21st century ̶ summed up perhaps in William Wilde’s, ‘Sensitive, imaginative and at ease in either a colloquial or more formal style, Gallagher is especially impressive when she writes of those close to her or of the general human condition where love, grief or sorrow are conveyed with eloquence and compassion.’
