Tubbables: Poems by John Roche - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

"Trifling" poems for a war-weary world. Featuring playful poems based on unfamiliar dictionary words, poems of childhood and adolescence, and poems that examine weird and quirky aspects of our contemporary society.

Here is an original tour de force combining astute humor and a bit of badinage which does not betray a deeper level of meaning. The whimsical cover prepares you for quite the laundry list of our 21st century that will be hung up in the poems enclosed. All three sections combine John Roche's sensitive eye, with love of language play to provide the reader with refreshing clin d'oeils, whether it be his Irish ancestors, his knowledge of poets and the art and craft they practice, or a welcome commentary, on our contemporary times. A must read, that will lift your spirits.
-- Kitty Jospé, author of Whispers of Perhaps
