City Sonnets presents a poet's view of modern city life in all its
variety. Thirty-six sonnets written in traditional form explore the
dark and the light, the rich and the poor, the ugly and the
beautiful. There are poems about a beggar, cathedrals, van drivers
and concert halls, cats and rats and many other topics. Each one
has a colour illustration that complements the vivid evocation of
urban existence in the verse. The writing explores what it means to
be a human being living among many others, with all the tensions,
anxieties, pleasures and joys that they experience. The sonnet
form, with its fourteen lines, regular metre and rhyming scheme,
brings a sharp focus on the practicalities and dreams of city
living.
