Paul Hewlett
$25.00
In The Quiet House, the small, usually unnoticed moments of family life become the beat and murmur of poetry. Looking for a refrain, Paul Hewlett takes us out into the world and home again, through parks and hotels, into past and memory, loving, recovering.
These carefully crafted poems echo and reverberate with everyday truths, eschewing corporate shorthand for the unvarnished and heartfelt. Here Hewlett asks us to
notice everything
write it down
map the world
carefully and free
and in return he unfolds a life in Aotearoa New Zealand with its tides and skies, storms and gifts, fierceness and laze, its days without number. There is much / to marvel at, he writes, and readers will find much to admire in this cheerful and funny, clear-minded and deep-rooted book of poems.
