Time Capsule

In Time Capsule the poem-like writings of a breadth of fictional voices are gathered together in an incisive reflection on contemporary existence. Painting students, surfers, pharmacists, retirees, sports lovers, budding writers, Toastmaster members, churchgoers, people from diverse walks of life – all muse on aspects of human experience, desire, beliefs and existential enigmas, as they put pen to paper to participate in a 'time capsule' project for an unknown future generation. David Ireland's writing is as original and inventive today as it was when his works first appeared on the Australian literary scene.
