In his first volume of poetry, Days of Dark and Light: Recent poems (Hobnob Press,2021), David Thompson responded tothe Covid-19 pandemic with an eclectic collection of poems of wide-ranging forms and subjects. In Where the Love Is, hecontinues his exploration of themes close to him - memory, imagination, love, nature and the environment, and the linksbetween poetry and other arts. The poems, including several prize-winners, are wise and articulate, sometimes romantic,sometimes lightly whimsical, often poignant. His poetic narrative brings together a variety of forms and moods in anelegant, entertaining and very personal voice.After military service and modern language studies at Oxford and the Sorbonne, David Thompson lived in Spain and England before embarking on a long career in translation, interpreting, editing and publishing with the United Nations in New York and Bangkok and then with the World Health Organization in Geneva. Following a second career as a free-lance based in France, he returned to Frome (Somerset) a few years ago after spending more than half his life abroad.
