Bottled Oddities: The Collected Poems of Dawson Hann
Dawson Hann’s poems, as the title implies, are all highly individual in their structures and points of view. They engage comprehensively, and often humorously, with those truths of human experience that our emotions, and our imagination, at times long for. They sit upon a shelf of life’s varied experiences, inviting you to sample, through compelling imagery and a diversity of poetic forms, the meaning the poet has extracted from a remarkably rich life of travel and human engagement. Not just this, but also a poetic faith in the truths lying often unseen at the heart of frequently ordinary human experiences. Likewise, they take you on journeys into memories new and old, restlessly yet beautifully searching for the truths always to be found there too.
The poetic journeys in this collection are frequently uplifting and always authentic illustrations of the poet’s conviction that nothing in life is quite what it seems and that poetic forms are as good a way as any to illuminate so many truths about how we understand ourselves and others.

Astrid becomes a diplomat after the war and works tirelessly to help rebuild the former enemy country. She is determined to improve the lives of the Corellan people now that the years of Hallenberg’s dictatorship are over. But the girl doesn’t see it that way. She believes all the old propaganda and the lies that say the Arralans started the war. Smouldering inside her is a brooding hatred for all Arralans.
Years pass, and her resentment simmers below the surface, just waiting for a vent. It erupts after she meets an old Corellan soldier who tells her how the war ended—his version of how the war ended. Then through her work the girl, now a fully grown woman, discovers everything Astrid had done, including the way Astrid had killed her father. Enraged, she becomes determined to undo everything Astrid has achieved and return Corella to what she believes is its former glory.
