Song of the Cicadas

by Roderic Quinn

This poetry collection from the Australian poet Roderic Quinn is a meditation on the natural world and the human condition. Through vivid imagery and symbolism, Quinn explores themes of nature, beauty, mortality, and the human experience. His poems evoke the sights, sounds, and smells of the natural world, and they capture the beauty and fragility of life.
