Picaro Press has published Lucy's *ON THE CIRCUMVESUVIANA* and Walleah
Press is the publisher of Andrew's *UNDERCOVER OF LIGHTNESS: NEW &
COLLECTED POEMS*.
These collections will be launched by Professor *Philip Mead*, poet and
Chair of Australian Studies at UWA.

About *ON THE CIRCUMVESUVIANA:*
*
*
*A special tenderness and subtlety characterises these poems. ... Dougan's
achievement is to remind us that place is a mysterious part of identity and
that families - weirdly and wonderfully - are always sites of revelation.
- Gail Jones*
