WHERE YOUR LEFT HAND RESTS
A collection of poems
Fiona Kidman
Godwit - $36.99

Last week I carried a report on the launch at Unity Books, Wellington of this new collection of poems by Fiona Kidman.

I have now had a chance to read the poems and have a close look at the book and I have to say it is an absolute gem, so beautifully designed with gorgeous illustrations, and then of course there are the poems. My favourite "Wearing Katherine Mansfield's Shaw" is just one of a number written during her time in France as the Katherine Mansfield Fellow.

Mary McCallum looks at the book in more detail on her blog.
