E.A. Gleeson Book Launch - The Deepest Thing: A Poetic Memoir
Free
04 May 2025
Description
The poetic memoir portrays the beauty and harshness of my sister Denise's life.
The poems depict the reality of her medical conditions, the characteristics of her personality and the way these forms of intellectual disability have been experienced within an evolving Australian social medical and language context.
Despite the obstacles, my sister Denise has encountered throughout almost seven decades. I see her life as one of triumph. It is an important Australian story. She cannot tell it and so I do.
An afternoon of folk music and poetry.
