Isobel Dixon takes readers on a journey to far-flung and sometimes dark places. From Robben Island, Hiroshima, Egypt and beyond, these poems are forays of discovery, arrival and loss. Bearings sings of love too, and respite for the weary traveller - jazz in the shadows between the fire and tremors. 'Venturesome and powerful.' - Penelope Shuttle

In her fourth collection Isobel Dixon takes readers on a journey to far-flung and sometimes dark places in poems that are vivid forays of discovery and resistance, arrival and loss. Bearings sings of love too, and pays homage to lost friends and poets – the voices of John Berryman, Michael Donaghy, Robert Louis Stevenson and others echo here. And there is respite for the weary traveller – jazz in the shadows, an exuberant play of words between the fire and tremors.

As Dixon explores form and subject, conflict and the self, she keeps a weather eye out for telling detail, with a sharp sense of the threat that these journeys, our wars and stories, and our very existence pose to the planet.
