Michele Leggott New Zealand Poets The laureate series

Find yourself a quiet place and some quiet time and be prepared to be transported to distant lands, question what you hear, see and feel, experience myriad colours, movement and lyrical sounds as you listen to the soft, gentle, lilting voice of Michele Leggott’s articulation of her rich collection of poetry.

Michelle Leggott teaches at the University of Auckland and was New Zealand’s inaugural Poet Laureate from 2008-09. In 2009 she was awarded Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit (MNZM) for her contribution to poetry.

This excellent CD is an anthology of poems from Michele Leggott’s published collections and was produced with assistance from the National Library which administers the New Zealand Poet Laureate award.

The CD can be currently purchased from selected independent bookstores
like Vicbooks, Unity, Parsons, Page & Blackmore, also Marbecks Records,
Jayrem's website and Amplifier.
