Advancing Backwards

This is a collection of poems written by a man perched on the edge of turning 40 and looking backwards at his life in order to make sense of where he is going next. Each poem describes a particular moment in his life but there is no central character and the moments are not presented chronologically. Instead like the tangents that memory takes each poem represents a fragment of time and this collection the jigsaw picture that is created once the fragments are re-arranged.
