Diana Bridge, Otago University Press and Unity Books Wellington warmly welcome you to celebrate the launch of Deep Colour, the new collection from acclaimed poet Diana Bridge. The book will be launched by Harry Ricketts. All welcome!
Deep Colour, by acclaimed poet Diana Bridge, is a fiercely sensory and meticulously crafted collection. These poems respond with graceful precision to the immediate physical world, and meditate on time, beauty and the nature of being.
These prismatic poems, which include some exquisite translations of poems by the fifth-century Chinese poet Xie Tiao, are fully immersed in the world, vividly alive to the dance of light and shadow, movement and stillness, sound and silence. Few poets see so clearly or write so luminously. Bridge's poems return us to the daily round with our senses heightened, our minds alert and our hearts made tender.
