53 Collected Stories and New Poems

release date: Jun 01, 2010
53 Collected Stories and New Poems
I began writing creatively in 1968, my last year at King''s College, London, where I was studying Theology. Little survives from those early efforts. These stories- some serio-comic and others semi-autobiographical as well as the purely fictional- were conceived and written between 1970 (when I had given up teaching and was working as a postal clerk in London) and now, when I am retired after a career in social work in Edinburgh. The poems are mainly from the last several years. Previous works by the author include two novels -''Dream under the Hill'' and ''A Canadian Childhood''.
