Brockwell is a masterful poet in the making, and her bold in-your face approach is refreshing. She is not afraid to display her vulnerabilities as well as her strengths. She does so without ever being precious and/or self indulgent. Australia has always produced talented women poets and we should celebrate that.
Dorothy Porter may be her heroine, but Brockwell is poised to go further. Strong metaphors and striking imagery make this a rewarding read.
Lisa Brockwell was born in Sydney, spent a large chunk of her adult life in England, and now lives on a rural property near Byron Bay, on the north coast of New South Wales, with her husband and young son. She has worked as a communications consultant in the HIV/AIDS community sector and for the pharmaceutical industry. She has travelled extensively in Europe, North America and a bit in Asia, for business and for love.
