Beskrivning
City Sonnets presents a poet's view of modern city life in all its variety. Thirty-six sonnets written in traditional form explore the dark and the light, the rich and the poor, the ugly and the beautiful. There are poems about a beggar, cathedrals, van drivers and concert halls, cats and rats and many other topics. Each one has a colour illustration that complements the vivid evocation of urban existence in the verse. The writing explores what it means to be a human being living among many others, with all the tensions, anxieties, pleasures and joys that they experience. The sonnet form, with its fourteen lines, regular metre and rhyming scheme, brings a sharp focus on the practicalities and dreams of city living.
