Frictionless Motion - Derek Dohren Book
As life experiences go, few can be quite as unsettling as being schooled by someone less than half your age. Sure, while I can gratefully accept a millennial demonstrating a phone app to me, or can easily appreciate the skill of a talented music teacher patiently placing my fingers on a guitar fretboard there are certain areas of expertise to which one may assume age alone confers a superior wisdom. This is not necessarily so, of course.
P>Review ...Dohren deftly explores the interconnectivity of surreal and mundane elements that make up human existence... Frictionless Motion is in two sections, but the soul connection between the poet and his deceased friend Ana, shines over the whole collection. For Dohren, times not linear and his journeys into the human psyche take us round many hairpin bends... Ultimately, we are left with a sense of profound fulfilment You dont have to be anything in this life/because/you already are it.Sara-Jane Arbury, writer, poet, performer, tutor"Being humans a tough gig" writes Derek Dohren in this, his 3rd poetry collection. He takes a look at our world and our lives from unexpected angles - from the mundane to the mad, from the light to the profound... from the melancholy to the hilarious... the toughness of that human gig comes to the fore as he produces his most personal work yet; dealing with the love for someone precious but lost.... Frictionless Motion is excellent and intriguing. It will linger with you.Chlo Jacquet, award winning performance poet and slam championFrom the mind space of a bus cockpit... the everyday and global are examined in this often, surreal take on one mans journey, as he navigates both his scheduled route and a life which may have diversions in place.Zak D. Dicks, Gloucestershire Poet Laureate, founder and director of Gloucester Poetry FestivalThis is a lovely collection. Moving, thought-provoking and entertaining on the page, and with the wit and humour that you always get from Dereks live performances. I wish Id known Ana too.Colin Wells, multiple poetry slam winner.(BK-9781913195243)
