'naked invitation ' is my latest collection from Lapwing.

Ian Parks says this of it:

"In the title poem of this fine collection Milner Place invites his readers to join him on a journey of discovery. The concept of journey and adventure is deeply embedded in Milner's work, as is his extraordinary feel for the exotic, informing it with its distinctive narrative drive and providing vigour for his images. To read these poems is to engage with a richly textured response to experience - and to the experience to be encountered by entering other cultures. His long poem, the odyssey, in particular expresses all that is best in this poet's work: its innovation, risk-taking and formal variety; its ability to sustain an emotional intensity; the sense of a lifetime's experience distilled into memorable language. By turns colloquial and eloquent, humorous and moving the naked invitation finds Milner Place writing at the height of his powers, investing with dignity and an earthy realism his 'rage against the dying of the light'."

It can be ordered direct from lapwing.poetry@ntlworld.com or for more info from http://www.lapwingpoetry.com where if you go to newsletter and scroll down near the bottom you should find it. I believe it's $17 for US customers including package and postage, whilst it's £8 +p&p for the UK. Paypal will confirm costs.

Yippie - Mine is on the way!

May it pleasure you, Lavonne. Support for Dennis and Rene Grieg with their publishing house in Belfast is important in these hard times. The Grieg sept of the MacGregor clan have been printing and binding books since before 1632!

Thanks

Having consulted the publisher, he's suggested anyone requiring a signed copy, or copies, should order from me - milnerplace@msn.com
