| Summary: | Walking to Jutland Street is the impressive first book-length collection by up-and-coming Auckland-based poet Michael Steven. Poems deliver snapshots of the human condition through bizarre personalities such as the subject of `Dropped Pin: Jollie Street', `a man who proclaimed to function / best in a state close to coma'. Still others are tender love poems, travel poems, poems about family or childhood memory. Michael Steven is a poet of gritty, day-to-day urban New Zealand reality, whether depicting teenage drug dealing, alcoholics or the night shelter. |
