A Ticket to Parnassus (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781449064075)

Recalling the poets of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century but with a distinctive, original and individual voice, A Ticket To Parnassus is a debut collection of poems that connoisseurs of poetry will enjoy. Encompassing a whole range of emotions and subjects including personal regret and loss, humour and social commentary, eccentric characters, marital disintegration, nostalgia, fantasy, moments of baroque observations as well as friendship, magic and death, this selection displays the author's awareness and understanding of the modern world together with his evocation of characters and places that may appear superficially banal but have an appeal that is vividly brought to life. Imbued with searing honesty and rich imagery, steeped in a style and meaning that is transparent, unequivocal and visceral while avoiding the pitfalls of ambiguity and obscurity, A Ticket To Parnassus is beautifully written, offering a kaleidoscope of emotion, thought and observations that will stir and move the reader in equal measure.
