WE REGRET THAT THIS TITLE IS NOW OUT OF PRINT
The mellowness of Jack Clemo’s outlook in later life work is evident in this selection of poems inspired by his own circumstances, the lives of writers and artists, band music and places and spirituality.
In these entertaining rhymes for children from 5 to 10 you’ll find a hedgehog with a taste for champagne, a tiger with a digestive problem, a young rhino who won’t go to bed, and much more. Each poem is enhanced by a beautiful animal painting.
Foreword by PHILIP MARSDEN
This second selection of Zofia Ilinska’s work is inspired by her Polish childhood in Poland:
‘… I set out barefoot into the cornfields
To rattle in the stubble of my first world,
My patch of paradise on the river Nieman’.
This story of a Cornish king, buried at Gerrans Church, contains fascinating reading, like the ideas that the Cornish language derived from Babylonian and Chaldean, and that Gerran - or Gereint - lived for a time at King Arthur's court in Wales.
From the Foreword by ROBERT GITTINGS
‘Hardy’s sense of place, & the emotions aroused by places, his active eye & ear, his uncanny portrayal of women, his concrete command of imagery, all are represented in this eminently satisfying volume.’
Brocard Sewell reveals here his different worlds: childhood at Launceston, journalism, printing, publishing; the priesthood, from 1965 editing the Aylesford Review, religious controversy leading to exile to Canada, & a final return to monastic life.
