Into India

Geoff Cochrane’s second major collection of poems is born out of the unflinching contemplation of often painful experience. Vivid and moving, distinguished by brilliant imagery and fine verbal music, these are poems that will stay with you forever.

Geoff Cochrane (1951–2022) was the author of nineteen collections of poems, two novels, a novella, and two collections of short stories. He was the recipient of an Arts Foundation Laureate Award, presented as part of the 2014 Westpac New Zealand Arts Awards, and was awarded the Janet Frame Prize for Poetry in 2009, and the inaugural Nigel Cox Unity Books Award in 2010.
