Sobre IBD

NEXUS - From the author of Bird’s Eye View, this latest collection is an intricate web of deceptively simple but interwoven poems, set against a backdrop of whirlwind change from the twilight of the Victorian era up to the present day. Nexus is the presiding spirit, the common thread across the ages that weaves through and binds the generations and helps us to face the challenges and tribulations of modern life. From shipwrecks to world wars to global pandemics, through the massive advances of the 20th century (aircraft, cars, TV, radio, space, computers, internet etc) and into the nascent 21st (drones, GPS, smartphones, AI, social media, etc), this is a wide-ranging tale of our times in verse, told with warmth, compassion and humour.
