One of New Zealand’s most acclaimed and widely read contemporary poets, Brian Turner was a proud southerner, and
the landscapes and skyscapes of the central South Island are among the
strongest characteristics of his work. His themes range widely and make
striking connections – poems about fathers and sons are also poems about
the duties of care we owe to the natural world; love poems open out
into metaphysical inquiry; satire keeps close company with political
protest.
Turner’s work is distinguished always by his unmistakable wit and feeling, precision and insight.
