"The Biplane Houses is Les Murray's first new volume of poems since 2002's Poems the Size of Photographs. In it we find the poet at his near-miraculous best. The collection exhibits both Murray's unfailing grace as a writer and his ability to write in any voice, style or genre: there are story poems, word-plays, history- and myth- makings, aphoristic fragments and domestic portraits. Houses are a many-sided theme of the book, and as ever, Murray's evocation of the natural world is unparalleled in its inventiveness and virtuosity.Les Murray lives in Bunyah, near Taree in New South Wales. He has."@en
