Description

Light and dark, poignant and painful, wistful and optimistic, these poems tread an intimate path from childhood poverty, more than fifty years ago, to the rapid advances and new technologies of the digital era. This collection takes an eye-glass to the past, reflects on the present and contemplates the uncertainties of future. Reading these poems will take you on a journey from youthful dreams and soaring ambitions to the complexities and pleasures of the modern world, all sharply observed and wryly delivered.
