Pulse is a miscellany of 29 poems, eclectic in subject matter and not overly constrained by reality's parameters. Expressed quite simply and intelligibly, the poems are largely narratives focussed on forms of a life force, the pulse that drives the body of the human world. That pulse is measured in a variety of circumstances. Some relate to a reality that we generally acknowledge and others are more surreal. Polemic is largely avoided.

Produktbeschreibung
Pulse is a miscellany of 29 poems, eclectic in subject matter and not overly constrained by reality's parameters. Expressed quite simply and intelligibly, the poems are largely narratives focussed on forms of a life force, the pulse that drives the body of the human world. That pulse is measured in a variety of circumstances. Some relate to a reality that we generally acknowledge and others are more surreal. Polemic is largely avoided. Points of view and nuances are drawn by the author without strong insistence on the readers' commitment to any specific ideas or concepts. Rather, readers are invited to mull the intellectual and emotional content and be entertained by its novelty.
Autorenporträt
Peter Knight lives in the world's second most isolated major city, Perth, Western Australia, on the fringe of a continental desert and the sparsely populated eastern shore of the Indian Ocean. He worked as a lawyer, mostly as an employee of the Australian Securities & Investment Commission for 25 years. Prior to that he worked as a clerk for government legal entities including the Family Court & the Perth Court of Petty Sessions. Before that he worked in unskilled jobs and as a trainee psychiatric nurse in now defunct mental asylums in Sydney & New Norfolk, Tasmania. That experience influenced how he perceives the range of the human condition. In his early 20's he lived in other Australian cities & in Greater Manchester, UK, where his wife Audrey grew up. In relative isolation he developed his own selection and treatment of the subject matters of his poems, tending to a philosophic or surrealist approach and avoiding intellectual pretension.
