Here is the promised Second Edition of this famous book by artist/poet "Mandi" Reid. As an artist, Mandi's paintings, drawings and sculptures are now in great demand. Her last four exhibitions sold out. A big retrospective exhibition of her work opened in February 2006. This was followed by another in February 2007. It was hoped to make this a yearly event, but we have run out of framed work.

The originals of most of the artwork included in this book, have not yet been framed. This work was especially created by Mandi for "Song of the Wayward Wind" just before her death in July 2004.

This edition also includes all Mandi's prize-winning verse including the title poem (named Poem of the Year by the Central Coast Poetry Society) and "Yarramalong" (Second Prize), and her famous "Barbieization of the Western Woman".
