Life Before Man
22 September 2025
Within Reach draws on the unsentimental attentiveness of rural life, where close observation, quiet resilience, and wry humour shape the everyday. Russell Erwin's poems move between the sensuous and the elegiac, capturing love, loss, and the shifting presence of the natural world. Echoes of Gerard Manley Hopkins, Seamus Heaney, Les Murray, and a formative teacher linger in this deeply grounded and finely tuned collection.
