ANNE ELVEY

Intents

In language forged from stone and song, Intents explores the un-easy work of living and creating as settlers in the face of on-going colonisation.  A questing, unflinching and profoundly attentive study in compassion, in the sense of its Latin roots com- (together), + pati (suffering). Between these fine-cut lines, Anne Elvey creates a space to suffer together, to try and fail and try again, to cultivate hope. – Es Foong

Delicate and attuned to the numinous in the everyday, Intents traces the vibrational and unsayable across exchanges human and more-than-human in our interconnected world. With the humility characteristic of Elvey’s work, these poems weave a moving ethics of care, a chapel of attention and interbeing utterly necessary for our times. – Willo Drummond

Available as Digital book (downloadable PDF) or Softcover book
