The Rough, the Smooth and the Quirky (eBook, ePUB)

Poems for a Complicated World

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Written in unpretentious and easy-flowing rhyming couplets, 'The Rough, the Smooth and the Quirky' is a thoughtful condensation of experience and reflection, with themed sections full of stories and insights into contemporary life.

'Ties of the Heart' focuses on the deeply felt - friendships, influences and relationships, while 'Liftoffs' presents poems inspired by the author's wide-ranging travels. Webster then looks at issues at the forefront of contemporary minds, with 'Words on the Woke' exploring the 'Woke' phenomenon, 'No Such Thing as Infidel' looking at aspects of Islam and its presence in the West, and 'Stanzas on Ukraine' presenting verses written as Putin's infamous invasion took place. Following two political fables (involving Lord Byron and The Beatles), the collection concludes by looking at human aspects of the globalised world we inhabit.

'The Rough, the Smooth and the Quirky' navigates subjects that are challenging, delightful and off-beat, aiming to 'tell it like it is' and keep a sense of humour - and hope - in the process.
