Description

Some Times by Harry Guest explores the complex and often contradictory nature of memory. This collection of poems delves into happy, confusing, sad, and celebratory moments from over half a century, tracing the speaker's journey through youth, friendship, and personal growth. Through vivid imagery and unexpected juxtapositions, the poems reveal the ways in which memory can be both a source of comfort and a catalyst for comedy. Guest also shares translations of favourite modern poems, adding to the book's unique blend of personal reflection and literary experimentation. Ultimately, Some Times is a meditation on the nature of time itself, seeking to come to terms with the passage of years and the ways in which our memories shape us.
