About the Book

Barbara al Sole is Brandt's second published anthology. It contains a selection of poems including the title poem, inspired by an amazing watercolour painting by Franco Giomi, the Tuscan/Italian painter. [My thanks to him for allowing me to use his painting, which I am pleased to own, on the cover of the book.] The other poems, on the theme of Love and freedom touch on the difficult issues of romantic and other kinds of love and the vicissitudes of contemporary socio cultural relations. 'The land of gates' explores both themes and is inspired by Brandt's recent travel to Enugu where he saw an array of Gates, aesthetically adorned but carrying out a much more prosaic function. It features the poem 'You'll rise', inspired both by Maya Angelou's poem 'I rise' and his amazingly inspired and highly motivated god daughter Shani Page-Muir. Finally, of note, is the poem 'Prorogue' a poem which highlights the then current problem being experienced by the Guyanese people when its minority government, in one of the few occasions in recent history, prorogued parliament precipitating a national and international crisis of confidence in the serving leadership of that troubled country - a step challenged by the country that invented it, Great Britain. In keeping with the practice laid down by the first anthology, Madiba and Other Poems, this anthology includes an extract of Brandt's prose from his forthcoming novel. Trail of the Lost Jaguar, soon to be published.
