Win Poetry Books Booksellers

We are celebrating the launch of Poetry Day this week, with a poetic prize up for grabs, thanks to Makaro Press.
This is the second trio of poetry books launched in the Hoopla series. The titles are detailed below:
Bones in the Octagon, by Carolyn McCurdie
Compassionate and subversive, these poems speak of a wild world where rules are made to be broken and spiderwebs are made to be kept, and women with foreheads 'like untidy knitting' dance with holy exuberance.
Mr Clean & the Junkie, by Jennifer Compton
Mr Clean & the Junkie is a 70s love story which begins at a Sydney casino and ends in a remote river valley in northern New Zealand. An Elvis Costello lookalike and the son of a local crime boss, Jon is weighed down with the burden of his filial responsibilities...
Native Bird, by Bryan Walpert
In his third poetry collection, Bryan Walpert - who arrived here from the United States a decade ago - writes of what its been like to be an observer or 'birdwatcher' in a land whose physical and cultural geographies he is still learning to name.
To be in to win a copy, email info@booksellers.co.nz with the subject line 'Hoopla', and tell us who your favourite NZ poet is, as well as giving us your address. The competition closes on Thursday 2 April, at 12 noon.
The winners of the very popular Edmonds Classics cookbook, are Rachael Morris and Rebecca Taylor. This edition of the book will be released into bookshops on 16 April 2015.
