- About the Book
-
John Kinsella’s essays are concerned with culture, place, and poetic language. From the ‘city’ to the ‘bush’, and with ‘prospect’ and ‘refuge’ of landscape in mind, his focus is up close. Always willing to challenge his audience, he examines subjects as diverse as the pastoral tradition, the flag, forest protests, the meanings of the letterbox, the Western Australian wheatbelt, racism and opera.
