And as a response, I think, to the pandemic, we've put together, or the editor, Peter Rose, has put together a really terrific kind of collection of

contemporary poets reading consoling poems.

And this is a really wonderful way to hear some contemporary poets reading poems that are meaningful to them, talking about why they've selected that poem.

It's lovely.

It's sort of, it's the right length where you can just put it on maybe as you're cooking dinner or going for a walk, listen to these little wonderful snippets of all different contemporary Australian poets reading meaningful poems.

And they are really consoling.

You know, I've listened to it a couple of times and

really enjoyed hearing the voices of all these poets.

And they're not reading their own poems.

They're reading poets by other poets.

So it has a lovely kind of element of homage, of history, of all different kind of poetic voices coming together at once.

So that's a really wonderful resource that people can turn to at the moment if they'd like a little dose of poetry in their week.
