Bunya 100

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

Bunya 100 and other cracks in the looking glass is Rob Ferguson's collection of exquisite poems that resonate on many levels. Raw courage, playful humour, teasing and haunting melancholy pervade these thought provoking, contemplative sketches of everyday life. Bunya 100 has nine high-profile accolades from reputable and esteemed colleagues and public figures like: Dick Smith AC, Aus. journalist and author, Bruce Elder, and Jay Newtown-Small, political correspondent for Time MagazineOne hundred and twenty-seven poems feature in Ferguson's book, with a rich addendum containing notes pertaining to each poem and their hidden meanings. Featuring the poem excerpt of Auschwitz victim, Etty Hilesum, at the beginning of the text, the poet in this book at once reminds his readers of the fragility and beauty of life: his poems range from exploring the wonder of everyday occurrences, to illness, family, loss and love. The miracles of every day life are laid bare on Bunya 100's pages, as seen from a contemplative perspective. One poem even recounts a little known incident in the early history of the Sydney Opera House. The book is the author's collection of essays that expand upon the different elements of human nature and what it means to be human.
