{"product_id":"debbie-lim-beastly-eye","title":"Debbie Lim, Beastly Eye","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe notion of gaze – both animal and human – threads through the poems in ‘Beastly Eye’. These are quietly intense lyrics in which attentiveness to the natural world unsettles with details that are often both beautiful and strange. Whether it is the reflection in a cat’s eye, a portrait of the elusive vampire squid, or the haunting plaster casts of Pompeii, central to these poems is the way controlled image opens into larger meditations on mortality and what it is to be a creature of this world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDebbie Lim lives in Sydney. Her poems have appeared in numerous Australian journals and anthologies, including \u003cem\u003eThe Best Australian Poems\u003c\/em\u003e 2009, 2010 and 2011 (Black Inc.),  \u003cem\u003eThe Newcastle Poetry Prize Anthology\u003c\/em\u003e (2009, HWC) and \u003cem\u003ePoetry Without Borders\u003c\/em\u003e (Picaro Press).
