A Crooked Stile

A Crooked Stile takes a slantwise leap over the everyday, a fencer's delight in parry and parody. Starting out from an almost out-of-body consideration of being, Jenkins blithely waltzes around the globe, your better-than-Baedeker witty tour guide. At home, she wades into symbolic systems, taking on water, punctuation. zero, family and mortality before briefly tilting her dunce's cap at the sun, as it sinks into the west. Carol Jenkins lives in Sydney. Her two collections of poetry Fishing in the Devonian (2008) and Xn (2013) were both shortlisted for Premier's Awards. Her illustrated novel, Select Episodes from the Mr Farmhand Series (2013) is a comic tour de force.
