“Titanic Verses” and other poems, L Stoney’s first work of poetry, was completed when he was only a twenty-two-year-old student! It is a collection of over a hundred poems that you will find hard to put down once you open the first pages - even harder not to read again and again after opening the book for the first time… The poet plays around with words and puts across that message in a style so unique it can only be “My Way.” He touches the reader from virtually every other angle of life - the political, factual, social, erotic, bad and good, rich and poor, black and white, slave and master, heroic and villainous, right through war and peace. It is a collection of poems that many will find controversial! With a bitter-sweet reference to the political pain in his land of birth, the poet captures the rough and tough transition from a life of hunger to a life of plenty, and highlights everything in between. Written in a unique yet simple play of words, the Titanic Verses collection will appeal to the mature mind, both young and old. One writer aptly captured the essence of Titanic Verses in a single grip of the pen: I am here for myself so call me by name; I am here for the dead and the living. I stand for the black and the white, for the refugees. God, I must be the dog you chained to the Devil’s leg!
