by Livia Jayne (Author)
A layered and intriguing perspective on poetry and the muse from the pen of an emerging Australian writer.
the poet is a fearsome beast
and they're hunting for a muse
beware, for if you dare come near
it might be you they choose.
The debut collection from Livia Jayne touches on the trials and tribulations of the muse, diving into the realm of magic and wonder - and frustration - that comes with sourcing inspiration from the world around us. Part love story, part warning, these verses reflect on a journey that artists, creatives and writers alike can resonate with as they wrestle with the enchanting world of the muse. From the first intangible connection of two souls, to the final resolution of the story on the page, you'll be drawn into a world of push-and-pull between what we want from the muse, and what the muse wants for us, tangled across metaphor and symbolism that bleeds through each poem into the next.
