Description

Prose and Poetry

Scars left by Life and Lockdown

This book contains a collection of poems and short stories from a working class Walsall man spanning his incarceration during the Epidemic of Covid 19.

It is a small volume containing some self-criticism and soul searching following an extended work career and retirement at the age of 67, into a world where nothing is certain.

Like leather there are scars, discolouration, colloquial and political language and references.

The work is straight from the writer's heart and highlights a sense of emotional helplessness. Passion, anger and incredulity permeates the work.

It is a "dip in" collection of self-examination; it looks at the effects of external situations that no matter how we try, we cannot avoid or pacify.

Spaces for criticism and readers own notes are included.
