This new collection by one of Wales' most prolific poets is split into three distinct parts and touches on numerous subjects, including racism, austerity, social issues, Africa, love, the media, friendship, ex-lovers, nature and mortality.

The text is interspersed with Lewis' own haunting images; black and white photographs that add an extra, subtle dimension to the overall message.

"This new collection's voices are wonderfully varied, powerful and haunting. Divided into three sections, Lewis touches on a number of diverse themes; anti-racism, Africa and austerity, to name just a few, before finally leading us back to the all-encompassing wrapper of the natural world.

The poems will provide an uncomfortable social document for some readers but will become an anchor of a particular time and place for others. There is such maturity here that sometimes we feel that the poet is only brushing lightly across the surface and could, if he wanted to, tell us so much more. Lewis offers us detailed observation, confession and brutal honesty in equal measure.

Once again, here is a well-thought out cultural statement about this crazy world we all inhabit." - Mark Davies
