摘要：In 2015, Robyn Rowland published two collections of her poetry. At first glance, Line of Drift appears to be very different from This Intimate War , in which all of the poems cohere around the horrific Gallipoli/ .anakkale conflict of 1915. 1 In keeping with its title, Line of Drift is a freer vessel which is not moored to a single cataclysmic even t. However, upon close reading – and this collection repays attention – shared features emerge. Both collections bridge the northern and southern hemispheres, albeit each in its own way. In doing so, both address life, love, death and renewal; or, to put it differently, both explore humanity in i ts essence.
