Our Mothers Dreamt

The miscellany of poems in this volume (my third in under two years), is the product of ripened years and hopefully careful crafting. "Going downhill at dusk/I have an enormous appetite/to write poetry." They celebrate a number of persons beginning with our mothers and the ancestral impact on our lives, as the title of the book suggests. A biological element is present in treating with entities and persons. The book is not parochial; is is not just about Montserrat and its people and problems, and some challenges are in any case universal. It recognizes the interconnection between Montserrat and wider world; so Donald Trump and Theresa May are present and even Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, as is reflection on a black Santa Clause.
