Sobre IBD

‘Roland Leach’s poems explore the elusive link between the self and memory, our fragile landscape and its human connections in lucid and often moving language that sustains a delicate balance between intellect and emotion. These are poems unafraid to make sense in human terms and all the better for doing so.’ – Fay Zwicky
