Akhenaten
by Dorothy Porter.
University of Queensland Press, St Lucia, 1992.
First Edition paperback. 172 pp.
‘Dorothy Porter cut her teeth on Emily Dickinson and the short, stuttered lines of William Carlos Williams. Perhaps she took the great Russian prima donnas, the more than Plath-like tragics such as Tsvetaeva, as a model. She was her own kind of Australian legend. She was the Dorothea Mackellar of erotic desolation. She was the Banjo Paterson of crime narrative.’ – Peter Craven, ‘A piece of work, and then some’, 10, Sydney Morning Herald, January 2010.
Condition: Near fine.
