nHave a talk with a ghost or a duck or contest the destroyers of the land, listen to the roos and slow worms, marvel and question and rage and love the language with John Kinsellas Aporia.n Aporia is a collection nsearching for logic where logic is hard to find or maybe cant be found. From nthe death of the poets father, to considering the complex, troubled, and often ndistressing relationship between humans and non-human life, and through a sense nof ghosts being materially present even when we doubt their existence, we nundertake a journey in which reality and creative conception are in tension. nThis tension is embodied in the figure of the poet Hölderlin, and also through nmoments in Ovids Metamorphosis, ongoing obsessions for Kinsella which nhe constantly circles back to, reconsiders, and departs from. Whether nconversing with ghosts or the living, with animals or plants, these are poems nconcerned with transformative relationships with and within the natural world. nKangaroos, echidnas, ducks, owls, deer, slow worms, and many other creatures nfrom around the world inhabit these pages, finding their own way through to nautonomy and self-declaration as the poet argues with himself over the dynamics nof life and death. nn
