‘The Naming of Clouds - 50 ghazals’ is Ross Donlon’s seventh book of poetry. Of it, Joel Deane writes, ‘Temporal, spiritual, elemental: this book is Blakean. It reads like Ross Donlon’s combination of ‘Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience…Deeply felt and deeply moving.’
Winner of two international poetry prizes and other awards, he has read at festivals in Australia , the UK, Ireland, and elsewhere in Europe. A sequence from his book, ‘The Blue Dressing Gown’ was a program on Radio National’s Poetica. He convenes the readings, ‘Poetry from Agitation Hill’ and is publisher of Mark Time books.
Refreshments will be served.
