Flight Paths

Birds fly. Machines fly. Humans take flights- or, sometimes, flight.

In these poems written over four decades, the writer traces avian paths, also human paths of memory, imagination, yearning, loss...

Travelling in many countries, taking flights of the mind and heart, she knows that flights often return to the nest.

'Flight Paths: Poems 1979 - 2023' is the first full-length collection by Australian poet, critic, essayist and reviewer Janet Upcher. She lives in Hobart, Tasmania.
