A Man Runs into a Woman

Author(s): Sarah Jane Barnett

NZ Poetry

In A Man Runs into a Woman, Barnett looks at the different ways to tell a person's story: two middle-aged men strike up an unlikely friendship, one couple reconnects after the war, while another couple leave the worst unsaid, and a cross-dressing man talks with his daughter. A series of nine distinctive poems explore the gap between the heartfelt last words of Texas death row inmates, and the grim police reports of their crimes.
