{"product_id":"wild-bees-martin-harrison-9781848610088","title":"Wild Bees: New and Selected Poems","description":"\u003cp\u003eSubtle and sharply lyrical, these poems shimmer on the eye while being deeply held at the back of the mind. Martin Harrison has been described as a writer whose poetry is a meeting place between the immensity, and intensity, of the Australian environment and the hi-tech world of everyday life. Collected here is the poet's own re-casting of his work since the early 1990s, setting accomplished poems from earlier books in the company of recent poems and prose poems.
