Selected Works
Pilgrimages: Poems 1995-2017 (2019)
Pilgrimages might seem a somewhat strange title for a collection by a not particularly religious man. However, as I age I start to see the pattern of my life. If there is a quest it is not to pay homage to saintly relics, but to seek whatever significance the pattern might have. The poems cover themes from boyhood to the last twenty years living in Cambridge, walking the surrounding footpaths with my partner Huguette. Available on Amazon as paperback or e-book.
Bathsheba (2015)
Was Highly Recommended at the Cambridge Writers Short Story Competition 2015
