At Dawn and Dusk

Bol

At the edge of dawn, when the bush is hushed and the first golden light spills across the land, a world of longing and quiet revelation stirs awake. Here, in the heart of late nineteenth-century Australia, lyrical verse becomes a vessel for both the wild beauty of the landscape and the ache of nostalgia that haunts distant horizons. This remarkable australian poetry collection, restored for today's and future generations, gathers together poems that pulse with the melancholy and yearning of colonial life, while celebrating the unique textures of the australian bush-its solitude, its music, and its untamed promise.A cornerstone of australian literary history, this anthology stands alongside the works of Henry Kendall, offering readers an intimate encounter with the voices and vistas that shaped Victorian era literature. Each poem is a tapestry woven from nature and landscape poems, rich with the scent of eucalyptus, the hush of dusk, and the shimmer of riverbanks. The verses are alive with the paradoxes of settlement and displacement, joy and sorrow, hope and resignation, making them as resonant now as when they were first penned. For poetry lovers and literature students alike, these pages open a window onto a world both familiar and vanished-where the lyricism of the past meets the questions of the present.This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions. It has been carefully restored, not merely as a reprint but as a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For those who cherish classic-collection finds or seek a resource for exploring colonial australian poets, this edition offers both the pleasure of discovery and the weight of literary heritage. Whether you are drawn by the quiet power of lyrical verse anthology or the evocative themes of melancholy and nostalgia, this collection invites you to linger at the threshold of dawn and dusk, where memory and landscape meet.
