The ravaging effects of illness, the break-up of a relationship and the disturbing nature of relocation. These are the subjects under award-winning Luke Davies' meditative eye. Davies' Totem was a grand love poem, a hymn to life; Interferon Psalms is a song of the brutality of time, a song of death, yet equally as beautiful.
Luke Davies is the author of three novels, God of Speed, Isabelle the Navigator and Candy. Davies was awarded the Philip Hodgins Memorial Medal for Poetry in 2004. He has published five books of poetry, including Running with Light, which was the winner of the Judith Wright Poetry Prize 2000, and Totem, which was the winner of the 2004 Age Book of the Year Award.
