Decima Wraxall's poems mirror moods of the natural world and humanity in a rich diversity of themes and settings. Visit the magnificent and sacred monolith of Uluru in Central Australia, share its secrets. In Peru, fly over the Nazca Lines, ponder on the huge icons of a lost civilisation. Savour moving paeans, paying tribute to the courage of those facing their own mortality. Share the pain of saying goodbye, juxtaposed against the frantic dating dance - alone - by a woman past her prime. Ageing is explored in its many dimensions, with a side dish of exuberance from the very young. Reflect on hardships of the frontier days. Imagine the dispossessed watching civilisation emerge with swords and muskets, indigenous rituals and ceremonies ignored as savage. Above all, the universal shines through in this thoughtful collection.

Wraxall, Decima: - "Decima Wraxall has won prizes for essays. Her short stories and poems have appeared in various journals. A humorous article appeared in the Australian Women's Weekly. Her novel Black Stockings, White Veil, a Tale of Adversity, Triumph and Romance at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital was a finalist in the 2009 Next Generation Indie Book Awards for Historical Fiction. Continuing the historical theme, her book Letters From a Digger, a Tale of Loyalty and Courage In World War I was published in 2015. Her next book in the duo, Going Home, is having final edits. Decima has co-edited two anthologies - Our Women's Work and Bare, both from the Women Writer's Network at the NSW Writers' Centre. The former anthology was a finalist in the 2014 Next Generation Indie Book Awards for Women's Issues. In 2017 Decima won a place at Varuna Writers' House for a week's focus on poetry with Vanessa Kirkpatrick."
