New and Rediscovered

For the first time New and Rediscovered makes available some of the legendary Australian writer's previously unpublished writing and drawings alongside a comprehensive selection of her published poetry and prose.'Vicki Viidikas' work enacted what Keats called 'soul-making'; allowing her lines to speak straight to the reader's heart. Her writing contains the peril of experience and yet miraculously her vision is optimistic - sparkling with 'the spirit in speech.' This fine edition from a major writer is a gift to Australian literature, a book for all the senses and seasons, its unique writing charges at the core of intimacy, offering an orphic explanation of a complex earth.'
