Overview

"Suitable for those quiet reflective moments or for a jolly good read, this book outlines the frailties of the human condition, how we interact with each other and the natural world. 'People of the land, our homes and livelihoods entwined, neither in control, temporary trustees for what you have planned"". Also there is a quiet focus on how we engage with the animals in our lives and the joy they bring us. One of the overriding themes is the sense of love and loss that we experience and the poignant tales that arise from this ... ""to this day in a still moment, I look at the crooked index finger of my right hand and fancy I can see a small chestnut mare up on the highest hilltop looking out to sea, a beautiful crazy mare who taught me how to ride, who simply brought so much joy to my life"". In contrast, this collection of eclectic ditties also focuses on the grotesque forces that infiltrate our lives as we sit in the silent communion of acceptance that washes over us. ""Let the history books show the tyrant of stupidity, who was elevated by his party to become the most dangerous fool of all"". Finally, it's about you, them and I and those transparent moments in this amazing world we live in. ""It can catch you/ In a car, a bus, across a crowded room/ A feeling of wellness/ A feeling of being ... A crescendo to the last movement/ The conductor brings his baton down/ Caught in symphonic grace inside your head."""
