This book is several books in one. It consists of poems written for three different muses over a period of years. Each muse was radically different to the others. The result is a fascinating set of contrasts and illuminating comparisons. That is the meaning of the book’s sub-title: companionship, discretion, passion. It is beautifully illustrated by Ingrida Rocis and includes a Preface explaining how the author became a poet and how this book came to be.
