Enough

Enough is a poetry collection about moving to the South Island of New Zealand, the gestation of a difficult second book, teaching writing, imagining other lives from their Internet traces, the aging of loved ones, and looking forward. Greatly influenced by happenings in poet Louise Wallace’s life, the book encompasses themes of location and family, and of the various journeys people take both geographically and emotionally. The poems span a range of formats and forms, from lines of verse to small prose pieces like miniature stories, and all are told through a clear, direct voice that is both accessible and relatable.
