Paul Hetherington's Collected Poems 1990-2022 travels into shape-shifting spaces where time and place unfold evocatively and mysteriously. His poetry explores themes connected to intimacy and desire, history and its tangents, memory, and the pleasures and strictures of travel. This passionate and various volume is enthralling-sometimes close-up in its focus and at other times architectural in its construction. In these poems the Australian sublime is uncanny, the domestic has vast implications, and there are extraordinary moments of defamiliarization and neo-surrealism where the artworks in galleries speak back to the viewer.
