Summary
From the bestselling author of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series comes this fabulous collection of poetry--his first--that is sure to charm and delight his fans old and new alike and reveal another side of this beloved writer. In these delightful poems, Alexander McCall Smith writes about his travels, from Africa to Greece, London to Dubai, from Canada and back home to Scotland. He shares his gentle, inimitably Sandy-esque observations on life, love, and beauty, and some of his favourite writers, reminding us how deeply satisfying it can be to take in the world around us with all our senses, and all our mind and heart.
