ALIVE IN WINTER
By Michael Tolkien
Uncertainty is a major theme of this collection. It is shown to be perplexing, moving, even uplifting, as found in personal relationships and behaviour observed in both the human and ‘natural’ worlds. The doldrums and peaks of the capacity for ‘creative’ work add further perspectives, and throughout the presence or absence of love and appreciation is crucial.
