Synopsis

As Ian McMillan wrote: 'Here is poetry as history book, almanac and calendar, suffused with humanity and glowing with empathy.' The poems included testify to the reckless unpredictability of the past and the various ways it comes crashing into the present. A book to return to again and again.
