Michael Dransfield: A Retrospective

‘Michael Dransfield is now recognised as one of the most influential Australian poets,’ writes John Kinsella in the introduction to this wide-ranging collection that showcases Dransfield’s distinctive style: ‘often simultaneously streetwise and sophisticated, and intentionally “”naive””‘ but ‘always innovative, often unique’. The poetry of Michael Dransfield (1948-1973) has appeared in literary journals and newspapers. His published collections include Streets of the Long Voyage (1970), Drug Poems (1972), and, posthumously, Memoirs of a Velvet Urinal (1975) and Voyage into Solitude (1978). —- ISBN: 9781761281754
