A poem told through the eyes, or keys, of an abandoned piano... fallen angels... forgotten women... and an astronaut - all feature in Cantabrian Joanna Preston's second poetry collection, tumble. She uses a variety of poetic techniques, from traditional short forms to expansive free verse. Joanna's first collection The Summer King won two prizes - the inaugural Kathleen Grattan Award for Poetry and the 2010 Mary Gilmore Award. She's also a busy editor of poetry anthologies and magazines. Before talking to Lynn Freeman, Joanna reads a poem from her new collection. tumble by Joanna Preston is published by Otago University Press.
