The Alibi

Rob Kersley's third collection of probing and emotionally charged poems covers everything from the realization that he was to become a grandfather to Putin's invasion of Ukraine and the costly pandemic lessons that went unlearned. Written from multiple locations of his home in West Cornwall his birthplace of Wales and from the vastly contrasting landscape and culture of Portugal; The Alibi is a scenic view from a wide range of thoughtful perspectives. Forty poems interspersed with watercolour and pencil sketches that record some stormy and some beautiful uncharted waters.
