Title: Jumping Ship And Other Essays
Author: COLQUHOUN GLENN
Jumping Ship was first published by Four Winds Press in the Montana Estates Essay Series edited by Lloyd Jones. It was widely praised, but has been out of print for some time. Now it is reprinted here, along with other thoughtful and often provocative essays, speeches and poems on race relations, medicine, history, love and related themes by one of New Zealand’s most popular poets, Glenn Colquhoun. Glenn also writes children’s stories and works as a doctor in the Horowhenua.
Promotional Information: \”… all the wonder and lyricism of an extended love poem … with such artistry – such humour and deft precision … He has insightful things to say about race relations. Consider \”The most difficult thing about majorities is not that they cannot see minorities but that they cannot see themselves\” … Jumping Ship is the chocolate you save to share with someone you love …For it is, quite simply, a treasure: taonga.\” – Sue McCauley, New Zealand Books. \”His language is joyous; his universe … is large.\” – Margie Thomson, New Zealand Herald.
