Overview"""Uneasy nights out with dead Russian poets, dalliances with German gas fitters and emotionally fraught games of badminton are brought together for the first time, along with a brand new body of work, in this time-spanning selection of Anna Jacksons poetry. Local Gothic, suburban pastoral and answerings - back to literary icons are all enhanced by Jacksons light hand and sly humour. Pastoral yet gritty, intellectual and witty, sweet but with stings in their tails, the poems and sequences collected in Pasture and Flock are essential reading for both long term and new admirers of Jacksons varied and slanted approach to lyric poetry""--Publisher information."

Table of ContentsReviewsI feel that I must start by mentioning the cover, its stark black and white trees and hens and just a tiny drop of red for the hen's combs, the title and the authors name. Very bold and very pleasing, rather like the poems themselves. - Marcus Hobson Author InformationAnna Jackson made her debut in AUP New Poets 1 before publishing six collections with Auckland University Press, most recently I, Clodia, and Other Portraits (2014).
