Other Animals

Author(s): Therese Lloyd

NZ Poetry

How are we to survive our own lives? Therese Lloyd looks around her with eyes wide open. Her poems create a lyrical pathway to sustain us along with other animals, as fiercely and as fondly as Ariadne's thread. ‘We construct our worlds in this way,’ she says. And there, among so much that can be underestimated or unnoticed, she puts her finger on an alternative strength and beauty in things.
