The Full Dress
The Full Dress is a collection of over a hundred poems and extracts
chosen by Les Murray from previous volumes and presented 'in conversation'
with artworks from the National
Gallery of Australia. The combination of words and high quality
colour prints makes the book an especially useful resource for teachers.
The distributor is Thames
and Hudson.

fine entries for: The Mowed Hollow, coupled
with "Interior in Yellow" by Grace Crossington Smith; Flowering
Eucalypt in Autumn coupled with an Indian wall hanging from the
Moghul dynasty; and Late Summer Fires coupled
with "Burnt Landscape No. 2" by Fred Williams.
