From the Mist

Arts & Literature

“Sarah Agnew’s From the Mist is a crafted collection of intimate poems, many of which express familiar Australian landscapes, metaphors, and relational themes. Yet then, almost out the blue, a depth of grief and poignancy hits the reader in the midriff, pointing us toward our often-unspoken vulnerabilities or ‘fragilities.’ Here there are no easy solutions offered by the poet, only the possibility of an immanent, unassuming grace.”
