A Most Urgent Task (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781740277273)

Taking us across culture and landscapes and evoking other states, Derek Baines's new collection touches raw nerves and brings humour to some of our most challenging experiences. A lone traveller enjoys hospitality at an ancient Japanese inn, an insomniac artist produces a masterwork from his subconscious, and a marathon runner moves out of his own body. A Most Urgent Task is a compelling story in verse of how we are living and dreaming today.
