Pareidolia, finding meaningful images in random or ambiguous patterns, that moment when you see a face in a cloud or a tree. Ed Southorn's debut eclectic poetry collection explores these surprising moments, revealing humans, flora and fauna are alike in ways we might not readily imagine. Southorn was a newspaper reporter for 32 years in capital cities and country towns across Australia and in England. He taught journalism in Queensland universities for a decade. His poems reimagine and reconfigure news writing, examine place as spaces of memory and belief and value pop culture alongside fine art. With wit and passion, Southorn takes a fresh look at the familiar and lays bare hidden spaces we never knew.
