About Electricity for Beginners:

Poems about falling in and out of love. Poems about houses that shake and flood. Poems about frisbees and families. Michelle Dicinoski's 'Electricity for Beginners' is a lyrical exploration of the sparks and surges familiar to us all.

'Michelle Dicinoski's poems have that clarity and zest that marks the arrival of a fresh new voice in Australian poetry. She coaxes you into her poems with sweet allure, and keeps you there ... This is a book that hums lightly, warmly, and with charmed intimacy' - Judith Beveridge
