Moya Pacey

Black Tulips

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

I’ll write about all the losses: socks, loose coins fallen behind soft-cushioned sofas, shoes looped around lamp posts, laces dangling like nooses, keys, coins, wallets, names and numbers passports and purses, pens, phones, glasses, gloves. Moya Pacey's Black Tulips is filled with subtly observed poems pushed into the service of a dark, and darkly humorous, sensibility.

Autorenporträt

Moya Pacey was born in Middlesbrough, an industrial town close to the dales and quaint seaside towns of North Yorkshire in the UK, but has lived in Australia since 1978. She was Head of English at two large independent schools in Canberra for many years, teaching a love of literature in general and poetry and creative writing in particular. In 2006 she was selected for a Macquarie Bank Longlines Poetry Masterclass and went to Varuna House in the Blue Mountains with five other regional poets. She won the ACT Writers Centre Poetry Prize in 2007 and was shortlisted for the David Campbell Poetry Prize in 2008. She lived in London while studying for an MA in Creative and Life Writing at Goldsmith's College and enjoyed the interaction with other poets and creative writers and thinkers from all parts of the world. This is her first collection.
