Book excerpt: Distinctive, fresh and compellingly present, AUP New Poets 10 features three exciting new voices.Looking out from today at a landscape peopled with her tupuna, Tessa Keenan (Te Atiawa) writes poems filled with quiet rage and remarkable lyricism. Meanwhile romesh dissanayake plays with language to explore food, family and edgy romance, from post-war Sri Lanka to Aotearoa. And, at just 20, Sadie Lawrence reveals the excitement and anguish of being young in a complicated world: &‘ My love stands in the laundromat, Sunday best with blistered hands.'
