Description
It was by coracle that the early Celts made journeys on the sea roads of their time. A coracle is a tiny vessel, yet it is sufficient to carry one soul on a whole voyage. This collection of poems is about voyages, both real and figurative; journeys of many kinds. It is about facing danger and doubt with faith - against all the odds.
Reviews / Votes
Here is poetry of rare honesty, touching on the vital needs of the spirit in our age and manifesting a profound awareness of - and concern for - the world about us. The reader is taken on a journey through lyrical work that is superbly formed, 'woven and stitched' as a coracle . . . This collection will provide real pleasure to those permeable to the wonder of creation and open-hearted in generosity towards fellow-travellers. A rich achievement, a true delight. * John F. Deane, author of Snow Falling on Chestnut Hill: New and Selected Poems *More details
