nzepc presents Lola Ridge’s New Zealand and Australia, an author page that includes Ridge’s antipodean poetry and video of biographer Terese Svoboda reading and talking about Lola Ridge in Hokitika, where the poet lived 1880-1903.

This long overdue collection of writings, images and recordings in the one place will open up avenues into a poet who got lost in the shadows. Thanks again to the dedicated excavation work of Michele Leggott and Brian Flaherty.
