A delicate, shut-in's sense of strangeness, and violence, makes all objects remote yet immediate, brand-new but old in an inner knowledge which slips in and out, sometimes revelling in pure sensuous description, sometimes playing with nonsense words and limericks, often revealing in one crackling line a remarkable image or idea. Insights range from the bizarrely disjointed to a hard, exactly phrased wisdom.
First published in 1967, The Pocket Mirror had long been out of print. Janet Frame is primarily known for her prize-winning novels and autobiography; however, the insights, diversity and deft touch exhibited in these poems prove that she is also a poet of consummate skill.These poems range from playful explorations of language, to vivid evocations of everyday scenes, to deeply moving pieces. They are essential reading for anyone interested in appreciating the full extent of Janet Frame's literary talents'The Pocket Mirror is the only published collection of Janet Frame's poetry.
