Description:




This is a selection from a poet who believes that Australia still has countless stories to tell, re-tell and imagine. These are works by someone intrigued by the varieties of poetic forms, who is a lover of verse satire and a believer in the contemporary power of dramatic monologues. Tradition is for Alan Wearne of continuing relevance since as he tells us: ‘I work for an outfit called Narrative Verse in English, company founder being a man called Geoff, Geoff Chaucer.’

'Alan Wearne rampages through the timid, dismal and so terribly polite terrain of contemporary English language culture and poetry, blowtorch at hand, laying waste the cant, hypocrisy, delusional self-narratives, rapaciousness and just plain unkindness, be it politicians or other insalubrious types. Wearne's energy, range and variety are without equal, whether in free verse, rhyming couplets or villanelle. Any poet of equivalent unbridled intelligence and coiled ferocity would be denied entry in America at Customs or put under house-arrest by the local Woke Taliban. A very naughty boy is on the loose. Bravo.' – August Kleinzahler

'The depth and breadth of these narratives and monologues are extraordinary. Wearne’s narrative strategies, psychological insights, and understanding of history, politics, as well as the dynamics that can play out in relationships are gripping. These poems explore and reveal much of the dark underbelly in Australian society and culture. Public and private worlds play off against each other in searing ways. Wearne is a master of tone and voice, of giving his poems a colloquial authenticity fe

Nice shelf option
These industrial pipe shelf brackets are a great choice if you’re going for that rustic, farmhouse look. The black iron finish looks clean and modern while still giving off that classic industrial vibe. Once installed, they feel sturdy and well-built. Perfect for holding books, décor, or heavier items when paired with solid wood planks. I like the open design because it really lets whatever you’re displaying stand out. They’re also pretty versatile and work well in different spaces like living rooms, kitchens, or home offices. Just keep in mind that this is the bracket system only, so you’ll need to supply your own wood and possibly some mounting hardware depending on your setup. Overall, they’re a stylish and functional DIY option that adds a lot of character to a space.

Excellent industrial shelving hardware for the price
I bought these as a housewarming-style gift for my brother-in-law, who recently finished building an extension onto his home and finally has the space for a proper office. His family’s aesthetic leans heavily toward that cottage-meets-industrial look, and these brackets fit the brief perfectly. First impressions were excellent. The iron construction feels genuinely heavy-duty, and the machining and threading are better than I expected at this price point. The finish is a clean matte black that looks sharp without feeling overly glossy or cheap. Installation is straightforward if you’re comfortable with basic wall mounting. Because these are iron pipe components, you may find yourself making tiny adjustments with micro shims to get everything perfectly level depending on your wall and stud placement. That’s not a flaw so much as the nature of pipe-style systems. Once dialed in, though, they feel very solid. The scale is also worth mentioning. These are not subtle brackets—they’re a bit of a statement piece. That’s great if you want the shelving to become part of the room’s visual identity, but it’s something to be aware of when planning the space. One thing I actually appreciate is that they don’t include the wood shelves. Bundled wood usually drives up the cost and often isn’t the species or finish you’d want anyway. This way you can choose your own boards and tailor the look to the room—which is exactly what my brother-in-law ended up doing. Overall, a very well-executed industrial shelving system: sturdy, attractive, and surprisingly refined for the price.
