Sinossi

A poignant exploration of identity and place, traversing Australia and America.

Caitlin Maling's Border Crossing delves into the complexities of being Australian in America, where conflicting voices and identities of home and abroad seek definition. Maling's poems emphasize place, geography, and environment, creating a vivid tapestry of cultural displacement and personal transformation.

This collection resonates with readers interested in:

  • The search for identity in a globalized world
  • The experience of longing for home
  • The power of geography and environment on personal experience

Border Crossing offers a powerful and moving exploration of what it means to belong, to remember, and to evolve across borders. For readers of contemporary poetry and those seeking to understand the Australian experience in a global context.
