POEMS BY JACK RANDALL LEE - “GONE FOR GOOD” BOOK

 RUIN PRESS:

Gone for Good, Jack Lee's second poetry collection, is to be published by Ruin Press at the conclusion of 2021. The book includes a critical introduction by Ella Skilbeck-Porter and enigmatic illustrations throughout by Dusty Anastassiou.

"Jack’s second collection takes readers on a psychogeographic journey of shifting landscape, from Sydney streets in part one titled ‘Here’ to the “foot-worn stone” of Scotland in part two ‘And There’. Its inquiries about place, history, and remnants are almost archaeological in approach: digging and sifting
through material, laying lost things out. Is anything ever gone for good? Perfectly gone, done and dusted? The past isn’t ever completely past, it lingers, stays a while, departs again, and if you look at time spatially, you can walk around in it." From the introduction by Ella Skilbeck-Porter
