Interval is the much anticipated second volume from the award-winning Australian poet and author of  Event (Salt (U.K.), 2007).

Come near, let me

sense you, in this human

way we have – for now

and not forever.

(‘Aubade’)

Interval tracks the silence before and after events both personal and global: two births; two deaths; emerging revolutions in technology that will alter what it means to be human; this liminal time for climate change. Fierce in their desire for intimacy and presence, these poems cannot release the past, even as they speed into our own uncertain future.
