This is a moving and deeply evocative collection of poems, photographs and paintings. Most are based on nature, especially the Darebin Parklands which the poet loves. Marietta explores themes of light, friendship, illness and immortality. The poems were translated into Dutch by Joris Lenstra, a Dutch writer, translator and editor. He received his MA in Literature from the Dutch University of Utrecht in 2002 and has edited and translated several books.
