Undressing In Slow Motion
Author(s): Michael Giacon
NZ Poetry | New Zealand Authors
Michael Giacon's first volume of poetry, Undressing In Slow Motion, has Giacon undressing at the turn of each page in a dishevelment of past, present and beyond. We travel with Giacon as he negotiates death, life and love while reconciling his deep Pākehā-Italian Catholic roots with his emerging selves and communities. The work explores a range of styles, including Giacon’s signature greyscale, where possible alternatives and different meanings offer us several dialogues at the same time. Giacon presents a sensitive undressing of self, sexuality, relationships and nature. Poet Siobhan Harvey says: “This stunning first collection abounds with love, tenderness, friendship, loss, the delights of pet ownership and swimming, and the sustenance provided by writing. Throughout, Giacon reminds us of the profundities found in small moments, and the delicate understanding offered by life's major events.”
