Synopsis

Shading our eyes from the glare we stand still, breath held, scanning this blue country we are on the edge of, watching for a sign that we may go home. In poems written from and about a specific point at the tip of a continent, Karen Press sends out delicate and skilful soundings: where are we? who are we? where have we come from? what might we become? Never overburdened by earnestness, Echo Location takes a good look at the hard questions by means of great entertainment.

About this title

Review

'Press' approach... demystifies poetry and compels it to be a fellow citizen in conversation with a diversity of other texts and spoken words.' Jeremy Cronin, Sunday Independent
