Exploring poetry beyond the page

About Exploring poetry beyond the page

This evening of poetry, images and soundscapes is inspired by the landscape of the Northern Territory.

Alice Springs poet Leni Shilton’s Walking with Camels – The Story of Bertha Strehlow is set in the Central Desert in the 1930s.

Phillip Hall’s book Fume was inspired and written during his years living in Borroloola.

Both these books have been published by UWA as part of a groundbreaking poetry series. Together with visuals and soundscapes by Darwin-based filmmaker Caro Macdonald, this will be a special evening.
