30 h. ago When It Rained for a Million Years by Paul Farley – thrilling leaps of imagination

An impressive collection of poems – largely set in industrial wastelands and musing on time and distance – makes the mundane magicalThe deluge of abstract thought in Paul Farley’s sixth collection, When It Rained for a Million Years, flows impressively far and wide. In this startlingly imaginative work, blood runs backwards and language itself has eyes – somehow, each word on the page “looks back, puzzled, like it dwells / on distances – between dip / and driving quill”.The “distances” these poems span are unremarkable in geographic terms. Farley is fond of scruffy car parks and cooling towers, PO boxes and photocopiers, taxi cabs and chimney stacks.

If you feel there are not enough challenges in your life as a parent, may I suggest taking your kids on a flightSharing the Load is a column about parenting children of all agesWe landed in Melbourne after our red-eye flight from Bali. Our then two-year-old was raging with fever (he was not ill when we boarded) and had screamed for five out of the six hours.Dazed and confused, we joined the long line for international passport holders instead of the much shorter family line for Australians. We wasted 40 minutes. That was when our then four-year-old decided to vomit. We cleaned that up (FYI, immigration has spew bags), got past the custom dogs, hauled our stuff on to the insanely packed bus that would take us to the equally packed cheap car park, found our car and drove home, before collapsing into a heap.
