Still Is gathers ninety dazzling new poems by Vincent O'Sullivan. These are poems that call and respond, poems that elaborate and pare down, and poems in which an ending is a beginning.

He wrote many plays and collections of short stories and poems, was joint editor of the five-volume Letters of Katherine Mansfield, edited a number of major anthologies, and was the author of acclaimed biographies of John Mulgan and Ralph Hotere.
