MOGWIE-IDAN: STORIES OF THE LAND brings together work from across Fogarty's career, including poems from the 2012 Scanlon Award-winning Connection Requital, which the judges noted `demands that you move out of your comfort zone and encounter, grapple with, and be open to, the power of his words and the way they are placed on the page and the way their rhythms embody the knotty issues you are being pressed to countenance, accommodate and if possible resolve - or at least come to terms with somewhere in your psyche.
