'Opus: a life with music is a stunning collection beautifully written and withheld.' - Libby Sommer

'"Through music we can say what we didn't even know we felt." - Ed Le Brocq. What more powerful way to reflect on your journey of life than entwined with the memory of music. Exquisitely wrought Opus gives us snapshots sometimes softened sometimes shocking but always honed and beautifully crafted revealing a deep perception and intimacy as we have come to know of Pip Griffin's poetry.' - Colleen Keating

'Pip Griffin's Opus is a gently written verse memoir of her childhood in New Zealand to her mature years in Australia. References to Chopin Mahler Gustav Holst Elvis Presley and many others justify its subtitle "a life with music". Touches of sadness including her partner's death and her mother's thwarted dreams balance the collection's positive tone. This is poetry to read over a few winter evenings by the fire or summer afternoons in the shade of a tree.' - Norm Neill
