This is the first collection of the work by an author whose tough, realistic view of our world today is tempered by his search for poetry and spiritual truth. Several of the texts have already found their way into anthologies and collections, including Pratt’s controversial contributions to the under 7s songbook, Big Blue Planet. Topics selected at random from the book’s Index of Themes includes AIDS/HIV, computer disks, deception, genocide, nurture and perfection.
