A powerful and evocative poem about childhood in Newfoundland. It is designed for both print and e-book with the spaces on the page working as punctuation. Another movie for the mind, it takes as much account of layout as it does content.
This is a poem not only for the ear, but also for the eye.
William Gough, author of "*Poet In A Pontiac,*" "David Blackwood:Master Printmaker" and “The Terra Nova Quartet" has returned to print with this book-length biographical poem about the birth and early years of his father.
This is Volume One of the Eight Volume: "My Father In The Arms Of A Poem."
William Gough’s Writing:
Of “*The Proper Lover*:”... "Where the poems succeed in linking memory and philosophy, they exceed the limits of personal poetry and acquire a life of their own...." Toronto Star
Praise for the Terra Nova Quartet:... "William Gough brings it...straight from the heart. Gough is a first-rate wordsmith. His stories flow with wit and intelligence. His unique blend of esoteric poetry and hard-line narrative shines a bright light on the human condition. In short, Gough is a true literary artist. No collection of books, private or public, is complete without his extraordinary Quartet." *Michael Kanaly * – author of “Thoughts of God,” “ Virus Clans” “The Voice Within” and “Room One”
