Description
This third collection of poems from Gordon Challis continues to fulfil Landfall editor Charles Brasch's 1960 prophecy, that what lay ahead for Challis was the building of a major poetic reputation. A foundation was laid with his first book, Building, but the worksite remained largely abandoned for 40 years until the appearance of The Other Side of the Brain. With Luck of the Bounce Gordon Challis clearly establishes the nature of his work - poetry memorable for its humour, variety of content and the underlying compassion of its voice.
