About this listen
Peter Hartley wrote the poems in this book in a little over a year but they represent many of the joys and some of the sorrows of a lifetime.
They reflect a love of Labrador retrievers and penguins, cryptic crosswords, mountains and travel, wild and lonely places, the poetry of Hopkins, baroque music (especially Handel), a dislike for most modern art and architecture, and an extremely odd attitude towards cats.
While nearing completion the author’s partner was struck down by motor neuron disease. This book is dedicated to her and to the immense courage she has displayed in its shadow.
