More than a Casual Contact

Since the publication of his debut volume, Inside, which was awarded the 1984 Ingrid Jonker Prize, Jeremy Cronin has always, compellingly, managed to combine political conviction with poetic clarity. In the words of Ingrid de Kok, Cronin is “our most experimental, demanding and, despite his disclaimers, one of our most accomplished lyrical poets.” Mote than a Casual Contact is his fourth, eagerly awaited collection.
