A Manuscript of Sonnets

About this book

The work now respectfully offered to the reader is a collection of sonnets in classical form. The writer is neither a Romantic nor a Modernist, and much herein draws aspects of character from the poetry of the 18th century and from the language of the law, which aspects of character are now instinctive to the writer. The poetry is, in general, serious but with a touch of humour in parts. It touches upon the various aspects of the human condition, including its joys, sorrows, insights, and aspirations. The writer would now respectfully offer the work to his readers, be they his critics or perhaps otherwise.
