Incantatory and elegiac, fable and devotional, these poems are witnesses to displacement and survival.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNellie Le Beau is the winner of the 2020 Puncher \u0026amp; Wattmann Prize for a First Book of Poetry. A Wheeler Centre Fellow, her poetry has been shortlisted for the Val Vallis Award and the Fair Australia Prize.

The poet's voice is assured as it reels the reader between past and present, between the uncertainty of memory and the crisp precision of observation. \u003cem\u003eInheritance \u003c\/em\u003eis an inventive, wide-ranging and vibrant debut collection animated by Le Beau's capacity for terse, unequivocal phrasing and compelling imagery. - Ella Jeffery\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNellie Le Beau's \u003cem\u003eInheritance\u003c\/em\u003e is a psychic exploration of the mediation between past, present and future. The imagery deployed is striking and often surprising, teasing the reader with its unexpected angles and irresolutions. Like the very best poetry, it gives its readers scaffolding to think in new ways. While the individual poems play with different speaker positions and poetic registers, one of the great strengths of the collection is the way it hangs together as a reading experience. I left the manuscript feeling refreshed and as if my mind had been taken on an adventure. - Ed Wright\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nellie Le Beau\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1922571156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781922571151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Puncher \u0026amp; Wattmann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.18d","brand":"Nellie Le Beau","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981754040575,"sku":"9781922571151","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_03de7b4e-e839-432a-a116-943c5f478e13.jpg?v=1683257348","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/inheritance-nellie-le-beau-9781922571151","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
