Without the protection of cynicism or bravado, these poems acknowledge all the usual human vulnerabilities, reflecting the real world where l'esprit de l'escalier reigns and that pithy one-liner is never on the tip of your tongue when you need it; hurt is deeply felt, but quietly borne. The author gives us his careful observations of life far more than his opinions and the concerns are universal. The wisdom in the text seems to have been hard-won and some of the subject matter is very moving ..Some of the poems can appear deceptively simple at first glance, but the points they make often resonate and demand subsequent readings; this is an unassuming book which quietly grows on you. The longer poems are frequently supple and mediate between an interior/exterior world, eg 'You can drown inside yourself you know/but only a dripping tap can drive you/insane' ... - from a review by Beverly Ellis, English poetOriginally published as part of a combined book: Two Books, this is a revision bringing those two books together as one. Some material has been dropped and it is somewhat re-sequenced to make a single book. Anyone having a copy of Two Books, will find most of what they've seen before in this update, revised version.
