Swamp: Walking the Wetlands of the Swan Coastal Plain

By Nandi Chinna

For four years, the poet has walked the wetlands - those surviving and those now destroyed - of the Swan Coast Plain. Personal, social and historic, Chinna's poems seek to reinscribe the rich diversity and history that exists beneath of the current landscape of Perth and the relationship between people and wetlands. The poems speak of heimweh (homesickness; an inability to return) and the ways in which we can use writing, and walking, to reclaim what we have lost.
