Omschrijving

Out of this World! is Richard Maitland's seventh book of poems. His poems are invariably witty and original, and always thought provoking. In this book we have such entertaining gems as Acting in Error which begins by telling us that:
Doctor Frankenstein made a man;
at last, he thought, success.
But though he'd studied hard for years,
his creation was a mess.

Fiction plays a larger role in our lives than most people realise. Imagination enables us to live and experience other worlds in which others live, and that golden key opens the door to a magic land where this author hopes you will enjoy the poems as much as he has enjoyed writing them. Who would not be amused by his Thoughts on Thoughts that begins by inviting us to:
Always think BIG,
and care not a fig
for whatever tomorrow may bring.
Though others advise; there's a glint in their eyes,
just a hint, that's discomforing.

The diverse range of topics covered in Richard Maitland's poetry is a wonder in itself, so why not sit down, relax and enjoy the wit and the rhyme on subjects as wide ranging as Bletchley Park, The Problem of Gas and Aladdin's Lamp.
