Hardback. Condition: New. As American critic Tom Disch quipped of many vintage poets: 'friends and pets die, the garden takes on a new significance.' There are poems in this collection about Dutch Masters, the remembered voice of a deceased soprano, a waterfall, ancient Chinese artefacts, victims of the World Wars, kites and flowers; but each piece is sensitively imbued not only with the poet's awareness of impending death but also with the incorrigible fragility of life. While Dallas is at home in a number of different modes, her high regard for literary tradition as a form of spiritual realism makes her eminently readable as a disciplined watcher of the seasons.

The Black Horse and Other Stories (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Otago University Press, Dunedin, 2000
ISBN 10: 187713385X ISBN 13: 9781877133855
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The people in these stories do not speak very much, and what they often say has to carry the weight of everything that is unspoken. We meet a farmer from Burnt Valley - his navy blue suit stretched tightly over his bent shoulders, a woman huddled under am oilskin trying to coax the fire to burn, a child jumping backwards and forwards over the ditch and singing. These people plant gardens, chop wood, make jam - everyday tasks that go on through grief and pleasure, childhood and old-age, making a framework for endurance. They are 'Ordinary people. I like writing about ordinary working people'. The stories of Ruth Dallas echo the precisely observed landscape of her poems; a New Zealand of small towns and struggling farms where sheets of water cover the low-lying paddocks, and macrocarpas share the rusted roofs of old wooden farmhouses. While the landscape is particular, the stories are universal. Like the best writers in this tradition, Dallas makes the connection by drawing us into a world that we instantly recognise and are unable to forget. The people in these stories do not speak very much, these people plant gardens, chop wood, make jam - everyday tasks that go on through grief and pleasure, childhood and old-age, making a framework for endurance. They are 'Ordinary people'. This title presents the stories that echo the precisely observed landscape of the author's poems. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
