AWAKENING: New and Selected Poems

"I don't think that any of my poems need an introduction."

CHILDHOOD HILLS

A very personal poetic glimpse into an Irish childhood by a writer of thriller novels. This book of poetry is best decribed in the words of poet Dan Masterson: "I found this book of poetry to be beautiful, touching, and approachable. It had me in tears, and laughing, all within the space of a few lines. It covers childhood, early working years, family, social-...
