What's Not Wasted
by Gareth Alun Roberts, 2016
This is his first full collection, which takes us from the wild Atlantic shores of Cape Wrath in Scotland to Antarctic wastes, via the Thames valley, Wales and Cuba. The poems cover diverse themes and subjects, but all attempt to explore the many wildernesses of place and self, to celebrate that these wilder lands are not wasted.
Includes 32 poems and illustrations
