All roads lead to Malton : poetry, to remember

Botterill, John2023
Book
'All roads lead to Malton' is a nostalgic journey from childhood into adulthood in rural Yorkshire. The story is told in a series of poems which capture the mood and the atmosphere of the 60's and 70's in this particular part of England. His life has been, frankly, unremarkable, but certain occasions, like his first day at school and his first visit to Elland Road, burn brightly, like a long dead star whilst most other days remain shrouded in the darkness of a night sky. The later poems bring us up to date, shining a light on his daring grandchildren and his dear old mother!It is hoped that this poetry will have resonance for all reader's whether they were brought up in rural North Yorkshire or not.
