Tell it Like it Might be - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Tell It Like it Might Be sets out to celebrate and to question the value of the human imagination. It is the source of grand designs and idle fancies, a key to empathy, tenderness and vision, utopia and desire. It can nourish faith, hope, mystery and love. But the imagination has other functions too, spinning webs of private fears and public deceit, guilt and blame, the easy lie and the terrible falsehood. These poems are miniature studies in illusion and delusion, false memories, lovers' deceptions and lying dossiers endorsing war. But beware of scepticism: sometimes the implausible is also true.
