Reason for Rhyme

This is an entertaining and thought provoking read, a collection of over 100 poems from a new author. Anthony undoubtedly had his own unique style which consistently brings a nice combination of alliteration and rhyming couplets to the forefront without sacrificing depth and meaning - in fact many of his pieces carry very profound and positive messages. There are also quirky, humorous poems and other light-hearted offerings scattered throughout helping to set a nice pace that keeps you turning the pages. Overall the book is more an account of one mans insights into the world he seems to find himself at odds with, though, perhaps ironically, they invariably end up conveying sentiments that I think many of us share. With subjects such as love, loneliness, politics, family, work and faith - the book gives good variety whilst managing to maintain a continuity in style & technique. If you're seeking a breath of poetic 'fresh air' in the shape of something current & ably crafted then 'Reason For Rhyme' is a must.
