A second volume of poetry from John Flanagan, author of natural selection and four other books - two novels, a collection of travel and expat experiences and a collection of short stories. The works in this volume reflect the poet's travel impressions and observations, his comprehension of and respect for other cultures and lifestyles beyond his own and his genuine love of his fellow human beings. The writing is mature and sophisticated, at times demanding on the reader but always accessible, and the poet's heart is evident in every piece he offers.
