A Man of Predictability

About the Book

Welcome to the second collection of Andrew’s poetry. Some of these poems are written about his travels here in the North West of England, interpreting in verse the sights and sounds around him. Then later when unable to get about due to illness he took his inspiration from articles in Newspapers and on the Television. The poems sum up his feelings on life in general, sometimes quite angry and disillusioned with the world around him. Sadly this is the last book of Andrew’s poetry as he passed away in February 2017. This volume is published by his family in loving memory of him. We hope you enjoy reading this as much as he enjoyed writing them.
