Of all.

Thank you so much.

I'm gonna go reread the song of Stalk and Dromedy now.

You know, part of being an adult is dealing with discomfort.

All right.

This is going to be good, isn't it?

Have you noticed how often there are ravens and magpies in Australian fiction?

Or black cockatoos that screech and wail?

Or the raucous laugh of a kookaburra?

Hello and welcome to a feathery edition of ABC Radio National's The Bookshelf, your weekly review of new books.

Although I have to say there are wolves, wild boar and witches in the mix too.

Not to mention the last year in the life of a famous poet and obsession in Japan.

I'm Kate Evans.

Cassie McCullough isn't with us this week, although she'll be back next time.

Later in the show, critic BJ Silcox will stagger in with a huge pile of books.

She's sharpening her pencil and her opinions in the wings.

But look who's here right now.

Novelist, poet, professor of Australian literature.

It's Tony Birch.

G'day, Tony.
