Almost Blurb

So often we find ourselves ‘almost done’, ‘almost ready’ or ‘almost there’.

A new collection of poetry by  Emily McIntyre explores these ‘almost’ moments, offering an insightful glance at the experiences that too often fall short of our expectations.

Not adhering to one poetic form, McIntyre deliberately plays with structure and language:  absurdist influences overflow from “My compliments to the chef”,  confessional poets swoon to  “Now” and “Sonnet One” concludes the book with a mastered reflection.

“Almost”, the writer’s second publication, offers a compelling literary journey finding cohesion in the most unlikely places.

Writer Emily McIntyre and artist Rachel Carroll (both northern beaches residents) are joining together for a combined opening  at Mona Vale Gallery on October 1^st. . Come and experience both art and poetry and some lovely tea and cupcakes!

Poetry Reading at 1pm :)
