Arcadian Memories and Other Poems
No Customer Reviews
Arcadian Memories and other Poems by Peter Kennedy consists of 44 poems on a diverse range of subjects, some of them drawn from the author's personal experience as a medical doctor of the suffering and fears of patients undergoing illness and hospital treatment. A general theme of the collection is an exploration of the interface between the darker aspects of human nature and the process of everyday living. This is predicated on the author's belief that our true underlying natures can sometimes be revealed more clearly when viewed from this aspect.
