Beyond the Window takes us out into the world. Here is a poet who engages with place and circumstance, ever thoughtful, his personal journey enriched with experience on three continents. He is not afraid to blend seriousness with humour, to delight us with a beautiful love-lyric, or use his deep inner sense of history and landscape to underpin commentary on issues of today.
     John Gilham, Author

Sensitive, rhythmical and sometimes touchingly intimate, Beyond the Window contains a thoughtful mix of relationships and sensations and is enjoyable and moving to read.
     Edward Caine, Composer

Beyond The Window reveals that the 'feeling of not belonging' has many compensations. Through the poet's peaceful, unhurried delivery, an authorial authority grows until the reader is convinced.
     Paul Sutherland, Editor, Dream Catcher
