Thieves of Time
Author(s): Joachim Matschoss
These new poems stem from many parts of the world. They are snapshots of life-life raw and unveiled. Snatched moments in time ... "With roots in both Europe and Australia, Joachim Matschoss displays a true traveler's eye for what most other people are too busy to notice. His mainly short poems have an imagistic sharpness of observation matched with a wry compassion. Many are relatively light-hearted. All are entertaining, one way or another. They will beguile readers who, like Matschoss, are prepared to pause for a while, perhaps over a pavement coffee, and work their way through this new collection." - Geoff Page "If you love words and their powerful imagery, then Matschoss is a writer that you should seek out. And don't just read this collection, go fossick for more of his treasures." - Wendy O'Hanlon "The poetry of Joachim Matschoss is so surprising, intelligent and seductive that very soon you find you do not want to miss a word of it." - Kevin Brophy "In cleanly sculpted lines, his acute and tender portraits are caught like sunlight on ripples of water as Matschoss evokes a vivid journey through the streets and bars of Europe. As he returns to his Melbourne home, caught between two worlds, his delicate haiku brush against the ache of loss." - Philip Casey
