Nieuwsgierig naar het verhaal achter onze nieuwe stijl?
This debut collection of poems by former Birmingham Poet Laureate Roy McFarlane explores love, loss, adoption and identity in powerful, precise and emotionally-charged poetry. From bereavement comes forth a life story in poems; the journey of sons, friends, lovers and parents, and all the moments of growing-up, discovery, falling in and out of love and learning to say goodbye that come along the way.
Themes of place, identity, history, and race interweave personal narratives, with and poems that touch on everything from the 'Tebbitt Test' and Marvin Gaye to the Black Country, that 'place just off the M6'. Distinct and memorable, McFarlane's poems are beautifully focused, moving their readers between both the spiritual and the sensual worlds with graceful, rapturous hymns to the transformative power of love.
