The Wear of My Face

By Lizz Murphy

A tapestry of Australian life, woven in verse.

The Wear of My Face captures passing lives and landscapes, fractured worlds and realities. Lizz Murphy weaves splintered text and image, memory and dream, newscast and conversation into poems that explore the strangeness of suburbia and the intensity of waiting rooms.

From bush stillness to hopes for a leap of faith, Murphy finds beauty in the distractions and disturbances of daily life. Meet a rehomed greyhound, a breezy scientist, and people in all their conundrums. Travel on a seagull's wing and wing through the aerosphere.
