Publisher's Synopsis
In A Taste of Place, let Sue Cole take you with her as she explores cities and crosses continents. In this collection of poems, Sue reflects on her experiences as a tourist and voyager. As she travels the Americas, Europe, Africa and Asia, Sue writes with humour, with philosophy, historical knowledge and introspection. She gives her reader a chance to experience these places with her, through her personal perspective.
Everywhere Sue visited, over a period of fifteen years, resulted in a poem written in praise, or otherwise, of each place. Arranged chronologically, these poems give a personal account of the world as she found it, perhaps allowing a glimpse of the person behind the traveller as she develops her understanding of herself and her responses. You will feel as if you had been there yourself, and this collection of poems will make you want to explore your world, as Sue Cole has explored hers.
