BooksActually is proud to host the launch of Eileen Chong's fourth collection of poetry, Rainforest, published by Pitt Street Poetry.

In her new book of 52 poems, Chong builds on her previously explored themes of belonging, trauma, and the joys of everyday living, and crafts her poems using imagery of water, forests, life, and death. A masterful collection from an important contemporary Asian-Australian poet, Rainforest is a strong addition to Chong’s growing oeuvre. 

The launch will be moderated by Matilda Gabrielpillai, an educator, former journalist and art critic.
