Publisher Description:
Help me, words - you always have. Susan Varga is an award-winning writer. This is her first foray into poetry. Rupture conveys the experience of recovering from a stroke, which is one of Australia's biggest killers and a leading cause of disability according to The Stroke Foundation. The directness and simplicity of these poems, beautifully arranged as stages in a recovery, carry the urgency, honesty and celebration of a life reclaimed.--Joan London The poems that comprise Rupture are lucid, deft, unapologetic, forthright. There are images and lines that are literally breathtaking, stanzas that punch with wisdom, and whole poems that linger long after the book is finished. --Andrea Goldsmith [Subject: Poetry]
