Rescued From Time - Paperback

by Barbara Fisher (Author)

In this, her fourth book, Barbara Fisher addresses diverse subjects ranging from literature and art to the natural world, traveI, food, family, and narratives of colonial days and the migrant experience.

'Barbara Fisher has a highly personal way of seizing an historicaI moment or a daily event and transforming it into a striking image or reflective occasion. Her individual voice and fidelity to her own vision and experience have won her an increasing following among readers of Australian poetry.' - VivianSmith

'The poems...demonstrate aspects of poetry I admire: empathy, wit and an edgy alertness... She writes on matters of enduring interest, and her reflections convey attractive elements of her sophisticated framing of human concerns.' - MichaelSharkey
