AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'What happens when people are called to follow new and unusual tracks, whether physical or in the mind? The secrets and motives behind the story are what interests Lee Knowles.

Invaders of the Heart takes us to such diverse destinations as the Abrolhos Islands of WA, a coal mining region, the Hunter, NSW, and a remote New Zealand tidal river valley. Whatever the direction and there are many, this poetry looks at paths of human endeavour and its traps.' (Publisher's blurb')

Notes

  • Dedication: for Richard and our family
