To Catch a Life

To Catch a Life
Need to see a larger cover?
In every epoch, some artist, poet or writer succeeds in crystallising the mood of his times in a work of art ... Gerald J La Touche's attempt to catch the life of his island in this exquisite volume of poems fits within this tradition. With great subtlety and understatement, he explores themes of West Indian anger, political corruption, loss of love, freedom and the material and psychological poverty of Dominica ... He portrays the precariousness of life in what is commonly perceived to be an island paradise. Gerald J La Touche was the winner of the 1995 National Prize for poetry awarded by the Cultural Division of the Commonwealth of Dominica.
