Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'In Mark Mahemoff's Urban Gleanings the routine of the urban commute, punctured by fragile incidents and ruminations, is interspersed with poems drumming against mortality, such as the refugees whose 'corpses washed to shore / all in the same boat'. Many poems are shaded by nostalgia and a tinkering unease: an old garage where 'dreams often end up in mothballs', parents and children cagily circling each other, or watching balloons 'disappear into their past'. As well as these segmented descriptions of daily life demarcated by a crowded metropolis, two long centos chronicle some recent Australian injustices.' Gig RyanUrban Gleanings is an urbane collection that manages to be both sophisticated as verse and open-hearted as poetry. To 'glean' is to seek what is left behind, overlooked, deemed superfluous but which yet sustains the gleaner, who patiently works the fields others have forsaken. In this manner, Mark Mahemoff scrutinises the ground of our living and uncovers what is valuable in it. What we, in our turn, discover is that these poems these gleanings are in fact the true harvest itself, its rich abundance laid out before us as his gift.' Paul KaneThis book is remarkable for the humanity of its content and austerity of its language. It is a constant going out of itself into the experience of others. Family, friends and strangers are seen for themselves in an effort of sympathy. The style is entirely appropriate to what is said, opening out possibilities from one line to the next. There is a drive to make sense of experience and then offer that as a new experience in the form of poetry. The impulse to remember is richly present. To memorialise the overlooked or unseen is the constant intention. Words pick up words through subtle rhyming and alliteration demonstrating interconnection, the abiding theme.' Robert Gray.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Having reflected for many years on his motivation for writing poetry and the subjects that obsess him, Mark realises that his writing primarily involves memorializing and eulogizing the overlooked and forgotten. Not only people but places and objects. He is driven by the weight of his forebears' historical loss. Loss of family, of identity, of homeland. This loss has been handed down like an heirloom.'When 'ethics are fading', so too our ability to see and attend to the care of other sentient beings. It's then that poets like Mark Mahemoff step in. Unwilling to let the casual cruelty (to man or dog for instance) or the truth that hides under 'the fresh mulch of denial' evade poetic examination, his scrutiny of human behaviour is discrete and precise as befits a poet whose working day is a constant test of compassion versus the brutal objectivity that it requires. These poems are never moralising, but rewarding.' - Adam Aitken''I fear the Greeks, even those bearing gifts', cries Laocoön warning the Trojans. Trojan Gifts, then, should give us pause. But life itself is the primary Trojan gift, as the poet-psychotherapist Mark Mahemoff demonstrates, with poems that probe the subtext of our lives, bringing a new text to the surface. In communicating life as it's lived, day to day, Mahemoff draws on 'Memories precise and cobbled/ from compelling fragments.' These poems are gifts we willingly-knowingly-accept.' - Paul Kane.…
