Even in the world of the very ordinary Steve Evans finds extraordinary poetry.

In Bonetown, he captures life in an Australian country town: lost kites, a car parked in a lake, a road-worker washing with butter.

Evans also supplies a feral logic to satellites, snakes and angels, producing an agile and sensuous collection.

‘Steve Evans’s poetry is full of fresh images and imaginative leaps. It is some of the best Australian writing around today.’ – Miroslav Holub
