A Year of Dreams to nurture your soul.
UNZIPPED - A Year of Dreams

Twenty-five years ago I dreamt I was browsing in a decaying bookshop when I noticed a secret alcove lined with hundreds of volumes so rare and so ancient that I rushed excitedly in and pulled the first one that came to hand from the shelf. As I opened its crumbling pages I instinctively knew it contained precious insights into the unfathomable mysteries of life.

   Alas, I awoke before I could glimpse a single page. But, uncannily, I awoke knowing I'd been allotted the terrifying task of writing that daunting book myself. That afternoon, I bought an Any Year Diary and every morning for a year thereafter my first act on waking was to reach for it and watch in wonder as a different reality escaped from the point of my pencil.

   Now you can read my virtual dream book by simply clicking the drawing at the top of this page; or if you'd prefer a real book to put on a real shelf you can go to a real bookshop and order UNZIPPED a selection of poems which contains forty-four of my favourite dreams as it was recently published by Gemini Press, London; or you can use the link below to email Gemini Press direct and ask for a copy. (Don't forget to include the ISBN and your name and address.)
