Black and white edition. This book is essentially a compilation of poetry written by Martin Litherland throughout his adult life: poems which convey stories, anecdotes and Martin's innermost thoughts. First are the beliefs of Martin the historian, passionate about the life and death of Richard III. The exhumation of the king from beneath a car park in Leicester evoked much emotion and further piqued his creativity resulting in the poem 'Look at my Bones', perhaps a true rival to that of the Poet Laureate, read at the king's reburial. Then follows an anecdotal history from Martin the geologist, stemming from thoughts, feelings and memories of his own exploits and real life experiences whilst working in various parts of the world. Some of the poems were written during his time exploring and mapping previously uncharted areas, others more recently, remembering those times. Further poems reveal memories of his childhood and emotional outpourings of a thinker, a philosopher with a wide variety of experiences to call on, writing about his views on life. Finally as an added bonus, comes 'The Moment Trilogy': three short stories about events in the lives of three fairly flawed and unheroic characters whose lives are changed in a moment.
