Balancing Acts gathers together interviews and conversations between Gerald Dawe and a wide cast of interlocutors between 1995 and 2020. Drawn from exchanges on television and radio, print and online media, these conversations with fellow poets, critics, journalists, colleagues and friends, are a testament to Dawe’s generous, open-hearted and open-minded approachability as a poet for whom the ‘artful way of making’ poetry has always been informed by an attitude of just ‘getting on with it’. In the same way that memory, for him, is ‘not just about the past’ but involves ‘a route into the present’, these fascinating interviews and conversations provide an insight into the poet on the go, in the process of making unforgettable poetry happen.
