Oh There You Are Tui: New and Selected Poems

Literature & Fiction

Hawken, Dinah

Poetry

Victoria University Press

Clearly demonstrating how her poetry is drawn from personal experience, this bold and innovative collection of new poems exemplifies characteristic themes of her work: personal responsibility, social justice, and living in the natural world. Additionally, two prose journals—one written in the month following September 11, while her husband worked at the United Nations in New York City, and the second written while they were in Geneva in early 2002 when the U.S. response to September 11 was taking shape—further explore these themes and her response to these events.

One Shapely Thing: Poems and Journals

Small Stories of Devotion

Morrison, Julia

Arc Publications

The poems in Dinah Hawken's Sea-light illuminate the forces--personal, ecological and political--that are re-forming our lives. They light upon small details in their search for peace and connection in an unsettled world. And they are always open to what the sea, in its persistent breaking and reconvening, can teach us. 'It is personal, it can be political, and it is people-rich. These vital themes and the trademark luminous writing are here again, in poetry that digs deeper into existence, linking girl to woman, life and death, peace ahead of war, the power of silence and the power of the spoken.' --Paula Green, Kete 'Few writers have the skill to return to the land and the sea with such originality and genuine knowing as Hawken.' --Sarah Jane Barnett, NZ Booksellers
