Crumple

Author(s): Vivienne Plumb

NZ Poetry

In Crumple, Vivienne Plumb takes us on a series of journeys, both geographic and metaphoric. These poems have itchy feet, wandering from Poland, to China, through Italy, Australia and home to New Zealand. But is New Zealand home, or where in New Zealand is home?
