Kitching cover websiteMegan Kitching, Otago University Press and the University Book Shop Otago warmly invites you to the launch of the debut poetry collection, At the Point of Seeing by Megan Kitching. To be launched by Carolyn McCurdie.

At the Point of Seeing is the extraordinary debut collection from Ōtepoti Dunedin poet Megan Kitching. Poised, richly observant and deftly turned, Kitching's poems bestow a unique attention upon the world. Her eye is finely attuned to the well-trodden yet overlooked – the places between 'dirt and thumb' or 'together and alone' – and especially the weedy, overgrown and pest-infested places where the human impulse to name, control and colonise meet nature's life force and wild exuberance. These compelling poems urge the reader to slow down and give space to the living, moving, breathing environment that surrounds them.
