Ulysses: an odyssey in poetry

‘Ulysses’ is a poetry collection that takes a fresh approach to epic form. The thirty-three poems explore themes of journeys through time, place, relationships, gender and grief; journeys physical and metaphorical, inward and worldwide. Starting out jotting short poems inspired by 90’s folk girl lead singers, tyrnyr is the latest evolution of a writer having the courage to take her queer, cerebral, alliterative work from secret scribbled pages to this, her first published collection. She is a transgender woman living in Australia who has written poetry since her earliest memories, now performing at spoken word events, presenting as part of theatre productions, and releasing pieces with musical accompaniment in collaboration with vocalists such as Matt Katz, Tessa Bird and Angie Hart. — ISBN13: 9780645499001
