Description

Eclipse is the third poetry collection from Kirli Saunders, who uses her personal history to create a searing, searching and often joyous mosaic of grief, healing, culture, community, decolonisation, queerness, regeneration and love.

Divided into three parts (Terrain, The Depths and Constellations), Kirli's poems are formally inventive and exciting, yet accessible and contemporary. Her words evoke a beauty that is spiritual and cultural, while being deeply resilient and new. Eclipse confirms Kirli as one of the most powerful, fierce and tender voices in contemporary Australian literature.
