Publisher Description
'WELL DISPOSED' is a collection of verse created to soften the blow of being homebound during the COVID lockdowns. The topics are wide-ranging, but the poems do include a few about how we reacted to the pandemic. Current issues such as climate change and looking beyond the self are tackled; adoption simply cannot be ignored, nor can the quirky, which means there is some fun with words, the perfect antidote to a world under duress. The opening poem 'How to avoid going shopping in Buenos Aires' sets the scene . . .
About the Author:
Gary Coles has written extensively about the impact of adoption, having published five books* plus more than seventy articles and papers on the subject. Since 2015, he has diversified and published collections of short fiction and observations about diverse topics, appearing as the books Very Much So and The Lure of the Trail. In a further broadening of scope, Gary has chosen to turn to the succinctness offered by verse. Hence Well Disposed.
