  • The Obelisk
    David Lewis Paget
    This, my sixteenth volume of narrative poems, is what you might call a mixed bag. If you bought this in a lolly shop, you would find the usual sickly pink sugary ones, the sour teddies, and the chocolate smoothies. But wriggling around the bottom of the bag would be some that defied description, black and glutinous, with names like dark dreams and shadowy freakshows. Unless you...

  • The Angel of Lygon Street
    David Lewis Paget
    Once more a collection of 70 narrative poems, with disparate themes, something, in fact, for everybody. This is my fifteenth collection, beginning with Timepieces, which was largely Gothic, to the present collection which are rather less bloodthirsty than those early volumes. I like to think of most of the subject material as bizarre these days, more subtle perhaps, but just as...

  • The Mind Catcher
    David Lewis Paget
    The characters in these stories may well haunt your sleeping hours, once you have given yourself up to them, have absorbed their eccentricities and the fables I engineered for them. They do not live as you and I live. Not for them the mundane and repetitive boredom of tiny lives, lived in quiet desperation in the mean streets of our cities. They mainly survive on the edge of th...

David Lewis Paget is an accomplished Australian Poet. His narrative poems are of such high quality both in rhyme and meter that there are few his equal. Over the past forty years or more, ...

  • The Book on the Topmost Shelf
    David Lewis Paget
    Each tale within these pages has unraveled slowly from some tightly rolled secret hoard, stored safely up in the dark locker of an over-active imagination. They descended to pen and keyboard as tiny slivers of plot, character, background, lines, rhymes, imagery and shivery. I was the lucky one chosen to put all those pieces together in some comprehensible and entertaining fashi...

  • Pen & Ink
    David Lewis Paget
    This book contains forty years of poetry, from the very earliest beginnings, to the more accomplished work of later years. There was a lot of experimentation in those early years, feeling my way, so to speak. The one constant is rhyme and metre. Even in the very few poems that may look as if they’re free form, the metre is there, as is the rhyme. It is the very basis of what I ...
