Connections presents a collection of the author’s writings – including some 120 poems – set within a framework of essays, short stories and other writings.
They include an essay on the writer Cecil Roberts, with a discussion of prose poetry; an examination of friendship exemplified by the relationship of French philosopher Michel de Montaigne with writer political philsopher Étienne La Boétie, and between him and novelist Gustave Flaubert; a short biography of the artist and writer Robert Gibbings; a discussion of the relationship between Mary Shelley and Percy Bysshe Shelley, drawing on her poem The Choice, which is reproduced in full; a short story inspired by one of L.S. Lowry’s paintings; a profile of the Japanese author Haruki Murakami; and a review of the haiku poetry form.
Other content includes an investigation of the special place in London’s religious history held by Creed Lane; a selection of 36 of the author’s poems; and recollections and biographical details of the author arising from his study, practice and teaching of law – plus details of the writings generated within those formal environments; and a closing collection of 30 of the author’s poems that touch upon the themes explored in Connections.
