Whitlathe Walrus

Poetry -- of youth and early romance in a modern setting; with free verse and traditional themes set in contemporary style. Very much a beginning attempt at verse and romance -- producing a lot of intensity, fragility and yearning! But the result is a mixed presentation; where one or two pages really stand out and others not so good! The book was first published in 1976, by New Rivers Press in New York -- then updated and improved in 2010 for a new edition with emp3books in Hampshire/UK. It is short, just over 50 pages, with a useful preface and 'notes' at the end to help with background. The author went on to write much better poetry with 'Londinium Poeta' in 2009 > SAN
