{"product_id":"collected-poems-oliver-dennis-9781742585352","title":"Collected Poems: Lesbia Harford","description":"Lesbia Harford (1891-1927) has occupied only a small place in Australian literary history. For decades, she was utterly forgotten, yet, when she died at 36, she left behind three notebooks containing some of the finest lyric poems ever written in Australia. Harford's writing looks both forwards and backwards, blending Pre-Raphaelite influences and plain-speaking with unusual subtlety. At the same time, she was bound inextricably to the period in which she lived. War in Europe, changing attitudes to religion, the suffrage movement, and widespread social upheaval all helped make her one of the first, truly modern, urban figures in Australian poetry. Of the nearly 400 poems in manuscript, just over half are reproduced in this present collection. Of these, roughly one-third have not appeared in print before.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Oliver Dennis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1742585353\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781742585352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Western Australia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.35d","brand":"Oliver Dennis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43979635491071,"sku":"9781742585352","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b58015a9-c857-4c11-8f68-a21f33338323.jpg?v=1683246313","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/collected-poems-oliver-dennis-9781742585352","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
