APORIAC is a series of vignettes on the changing nature of relationships and perspective from 'whispering in the back seat' of childhood to later in life 'when words are just another noise'. Set against Western Australian suburban and coastal landscapes, you will pass through 'the rusty chicken-wire gate' to find 'a shadow of things unsaid' and your 'clothes scattered over the wooden steps' on a beach 'lavish with treachery and strays'. This collection contains the prize-winning poems 'Harlequin Street' and 'Nude Descending a Staircase', which won The KW Treanor Poetry Prize in 2013 and 2014 respectively, and 'Sometimes behind the Wallpaper', awarded second place in The Kathleen Julia Bates Memorial Poetry Competition 2014.
