Literature

Paperback. A collection which juggles its opposites with panache - heart and intellect, melancholy and zest, derangement and perspicacity. Beginning with early stirrings of logical thought in a Palaeolithic cave, it ranges through times, places and viewpoints before homing close in the last poems to family predicaments that are personal in their particulars. Num Pages: 83 pages. BIC Classification: DCF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 216 x 135 x 7. Weight in Grams: 116.
