Portable Paradise - Roger Robinson

Roger Robinson S Range Is Wide: The Joys And Pains Of Family Life; Observations On The Threatening Edge Of Violence Below The Surface Energies Of Black British Territories In London; Memories Of An Older Trinidad And Visits That Tell Him Both How He And The Country Have Changed; Emblematic Poems On The Beauty And Often Bizarre Strangeness Of The World Of Animals; Quizzical Responses To The Strange, The Heartening, And The Appalling In Incidents Encountered In Daily Life; Reflections On The Purposes And Costs Of Making Art, As In Fine Poems On A George Stubbs Painting, Cocaine And Coltranes Ascension, And Questioning Thoughts On The Ideologies Of Toni Morrison And John Milton. The Poems Express A Fierce Anger Against Injustice, But Also Convey The Irrepressible Sense That Roger Robinson Cannot Help But Love People For Their Humour, Oddity And Generosity Of Spirit.
