About This Book

A collection of lyrical poems that move between private memory, domestic scenes, and wartime grief. The poet addresses loss and remembrance through elegies, hospital and battlefield recollections, and personal snapshots of childhood, small-town landscapes, and seasonal change. Imagery ranges from fox hunts and bagpipes to shop windows and bedside prayers, balancing rural nature and intimate moments with portraits of wounded men and mourning relatives. Spare, direct language foregrounds emotional restraint, attentive detail, and the effort to keep names and small acts alive amid the wider costs of conflict.
