Poems from a Life

About this ebook
A book of poetry by Irish poet/novelist Des Greene.
Romance and lyricism are always near the surface in these works. Modern life has almost lost connection with nature but the links are not stretched to the limit in the Irish mind. Love of countryside and sea are strong undercurrents even to personal emotional traumas. The words ride on the waves or over the hills, singing to nature.
Des Greene
In my novels I try to merge the worlds of modern science (quantum theory/relativity/cosmology) with the metaphysical world of philosophy (in particular philosophy of science and theory of knowledge).The characters inhabit this world and struggle with the events of a sometimes brutal reality and the more ethereal reality of the mind.Reading the novels should lead the reader on a journey that is both physically and intellectually challenging and perhaps enlightening.
