“John Atkinson, of old North of England farming stock, has written a book as layered, diverse and compact as the soil itself ”– Hugh McMillan

Of the poems in this his first collection, some are elegies for the passing of that world, others show the influence of this upbringing, in his observations, respect and love for the natural world.
