Description

DAVID BEST, journalist turned Anglican priest-poet, wants his work "to explore feelings, fears, discoveries - map them, colour them, test and play with them, sometimes stretching, challenging..." True to that sentiment, From Under the Bench is an intriguing, refreshing collection with a compelling internal rhythm that coaxes the reader without bullying. Always generous, these poems place 'ordinary life' under the microscope, looking for the spirit at the centre of things. This is poetry of ideas, of meaning...and of the soul.
