Helene Castles’ collection illustrates this quite superbly. This poet has her own engaging and gently perceptive voice. The wording of her poetry is reflective and ideally chosen to convey whatever she chooses to share about her life experiences.’ – Patrick Crudden.
Sundance of ShadowThe collected poems of Kylie OakesKylie Oakes discovered her gift for poetry early and at the age of fourteen won first and second prizes in a competition offered for juniors by the Sunraysia branch of the Fellowship of Australian Writers. As time passed Kylie continued to write perceptive, probing poetry until she achieved something close to perfection in her preferred writing style. Her legacy consists of more than 120 poems, many of them gathered in chronological order by Kylie herself and many retrieved from desk drawers, computers, manila folders and the magazine Tamba, to which she contributed regularly until her death at the age of thirty-two in 2006.
