Fife poems selection book ('First Tow', 1996) (Gilmerton EH17)

'FIRST TOW'
A selection of poems from Fife.
Compiled and edited by Lillian King and Valerie King
(Lochgelly, 1996)

''Poetry allows you to contemplate the beauty of creation or shout down a king or president. What is considered to be the best poetry goes in and out of fashion as the eras of civilisation pass. The genuines - the Wordsworths, Shakespeares and Eliots, exist as the apex of a waste pyramid of people, ordinary folk, writing for whatever reason to express their humanity.
This collection of seventy poems was chosen from over seven hundred submissions for the annual Lochgelly Centre Poetry Exhibitions. The poets included all live in Fife or hail from Fife.''
- Willie Hershaw


Paperback, 74 pages, comfort print and large print but for some reason fonts are in cursive.


Little book, looking for a largely friendly home :)
