Více o knize
At some time in our lives most of us have come in contact with our heritage of Australian bush verse. Our blood has stirred to the urgent rhythm of a Paterson poem; our hearts have opened to Lawson's interpretation of bush life; and we've laughed along with C.J. Dennis and John O'Brien.Favourite Australian Poems is a miniature treasure of verse from these writers and others of similar stature. The poems included all reflect the poets' love of the Australian bush - its savagery, its harshness, and its contrasting beauty and splendour - and also the poets' feelings for the people who lived and worked in the bush.Beautifully illustrated with Ron Driscoll's subtle and evocative pencil drawings, Favourite Australian Poems will prove a valued addition to the shelves of those who treasure the works of best loved Australian poets.
