This is a travel book with a difference, this is a poetic journey across two continents, visiting as diverse places as the giant metropolises of Manhattan, Amsterdam and London, right down to the tiny traffic-free Channel Island of Sark
We explore mystical ancient stone circles in desolate moors, chill in seaside resorts on both sides of the English Channel, stop-off for cultural experiences in New York and closer to the poet's home, his horror at encountering 24 hour party people in Spain and exploring a desert to escape for some peace, meeting an air steward with a story to tell and spending a whole day sitting on a bench by the sea observing people and pondering the meaning of life.
