Synopsis

Living on the Hebridean Isle of Coll is far from easy. Many services taken for granted on the mainland are just not available. Summers are enjoyable but winters full of wind and rain. The very small community has its own set of problems. While George Carles poem An Island Life is a rather jaded, tongue-in-cheek look at what life is like on Coll, so many of his poems take their ethos and inspiration from his experience of life as a medical doctor living in this isolated and atmospheric region.

Biographie de l'auteur

It seems strange for a medical doctor of forty-six to suddenly find poetrybut this is exactly what happened to George Carle. His marriage broke up and his wife left suddenly, taking his two dear children with her. Living on a remote and isolated island intensified his sadness and he required treatment for depression. During this illness he started to write poetry which ranges through a wide spectrum of human experiencefrom the anguish of separation, love, religion, death; and yet these epiphanies of human experience, often charged with emotion, are made more poignant through the oblique touches of humour.
