Suspicious Titles: Thirty-seven poems

By Peter Hague

The foundation of 'Suspicious Titles' is built with poems from my early period, ranging between 1975 and 1988 that are often directly written as welcome affirmations of the painful struggle that we may all find ourselves facing should we slip through the boundaries of their difficult truths. They are welcome via their attempts at understanding the various dilemmas at their core - the situations and emotional conditions that have us lost and wandering in an existential maze. As an initial proposition, I can say that much of 'Suspicious Titles', though somewhat semi- autobiographical, not only deals with the important details that form the various entanglements of lives, it tends to deal with them in terms of their place in the wider picture and sometimes in abstract and creative ways and from different viewpoints. This is especially true now we are viewing these poems at a distance in time, and although there are two books written earlier than this, 'Suspicious Titles' could certainly be considerd as the first to carry the style of my later work into its own future.
