註釋

Duggan was for many years in the 1930s and 1940s the best known poet in New Zealand, but recently has been almost unacknowledged and most of her work is now out of print. She is important in Catholic and New Zealand Irish writing. Her lyrical gift and her evocation of atmosphere was very popular at the time she was writing, so this volume serves as an example of that phase of poetry's development. This selection, which was published on the 100th anniversary of the poet's birth, contains work from her five published books of poetry, plus 37 previously unpublished poems and 12 items of prose. The editor, who has provided an introduction, is a lecturer in English at the Victoria University of Wellington.
