Acknowledgements

I would like to thank the Literature Board of the Australia Council for funding two residencies: six weeks at the Tyrone Guthrie Centre, Annaghmakerrig, County Monaghan, Ireland in 2005; and six months at the Whiting Studio in Rome in 2010–2011.

This project has been assisted by the Commonwealth Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body.

The Giramondo Publishing Company is grateful for the support given to its publishing program by Western Sydney University.
