Evangelyne & other Poems is published by the Australian Poetry, Melbourne in their New Poets Series 2009.

"Helen Hagemann’s writing is a triumphant celebration of the power of poetry to recapture the past and still the present. Whether she is remembering growing up on the Central Coast of NSW, memorialising family and neighbours or observing cormorants, she makes each moment vividly real. These poems have all the dazzle and sting of a summer day at the beach, with the esky full of rolls and lettuce and the ‘cozzie’ a ‘rainbow’ to put on. Evangelyne & other poems is an exuberant, generous, thoroughly lived-in collection. Its relish for the everyday details of Australian life is a rare delight" - Jean Kent.

RRP $10 Available from ReadingsGoogle Books, Alibris, Abe Books, University of Melbourne Bookshop, The Book Depository, and from the author (with free postage) via email hagemann.helen@gmail.com    








Joyous Lake contains poems that will take you down a nature trail to lakes, rivers, ponds, & more.


Par écrit: poetry of the feminine is a second e-book in the series by Helen Hagemann."

"The beauty of e-books", writes Hagemann, "is that they allow the artist total control, there is no middle man, no tight controls on form or content and this type of publication affords free access to readers that was not previously possible. In this global scenario, poems or chapbooks that were once out-of-date publications can now re-surface to be read at one's leisure. In this collection, flowers form the photographic content where  the work seeks to showcase the beauty of the rose as a juxtaposition to all things female.

"Helen Hagemann writes away from the centre to a feminine perspective. Her poetry is what Hélène Cixous calls "écriture féminine" - woman as subject, not object. Her work is grounded in all things female, of the self, of an overarching sensibility towards women, and the female experience.
