In \"Patria,\" the distinguished scholar and poet L. H. Allen captures the soul of a nation through a series of lyrical and deeply felt verses. Moving between classical influences and a raw, local sensitivity, Allen explores the themes of heritage, nature, and the quiet dignity of the Australian spirit.\n\nFrom the shifting light over the Great Dividing Range to the intimate reflections of a mind steeped in history, these poems serve as a bridge between the old world and the new. Whether you are a lover of classic Australian verse or a collector of fine early-century pressings, \"Patria\" offers a hauntingly beautiful window into the poetic heart of 1940s Australia. It is an essential volume for anyone who believes that the true history of a land is written in the music of its words.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48750362329307,"sku":"2026200005279-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/cfc1c053-a7b8-4364-9ea1-85562614f020.png?v=1778095195","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200005279-secondhand-patria-poems","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
