Jane Williams (Author)
From early poems re-imagining Bible stories to new work influenced by her travels through Asia, Jane Williams' keen interest in the connections between people pervades. Days Like These offers readers familiar with her work a treasured collation and to those coming to it for the first time a tantalising introduction. Here you will find sorrow and joy inextricably linked in captivating verse that is ultimately a celebration of the journey we share. Jane's previous IP title was City of Possibilities, which was supported by a grant from the Australia Council
