They are what this age needs: poems about war which do not glorify war; poems which, for all their considerable rhetorical power, nowhere distance themselves from pain, brutality and callous error. Very few collections bring home so powerfully the vulnerability of individuals in the face of history. This collection certainly takes its place among Robyn Rowland's best work. It is a courageous achievement." -- Lisa Gorton, Poetry editor, Australian Book Review.Summary: "Dr Robyn Rowland's poems are intensely felt and expressed. With an epic perspective and powerful emotionality, she has created a lasting and moving saga of the Anzac and Turkish warriors in conflict, as well as in intimate comradeship. Her perceptive sensitivity creates a vivid and enduring picture of the agonies, sufferings, and heroic acts that characterize the human tragedy of Gallipoli. In translating impeccably these poems into Turkish, Professor M.Ali Çelikel has commendably conveyed the epic depth and literary qualities embodied in the poems." -- Professor Himmet Umunç Ph.D. Baskent University, President, English Language and Literature Research Association of Turkey.
