My first full-length poetry book Coracle was reviewed by eminent Australian poet and critic Shane McCauley in Indigo literary journal, issue 4, Spring 2009. Indigo was produced by Donna Ward and published by Out of the Asylum Writers Group, Fremantle, Western Australia.
From the opening lines of the first poem, the reader is introduced to a powerful, resonant and poignantly moving voice … Jackson’s poetry is lean and purposeful … There are many stunning poems here, wry and wistful, love poems with a heartbreaking absence of sentimentality, terrific poems of place and observation and understanding … Coracle is unreservedly recommended.
