An erudite poetry collection of deep, resplendent, proportions. Documenting half a century of a man's journey, it urges readers to never give up. Replete with a lifetime of romantic yearnings, political commentary, and quiet thoughts, this book speaks to everyone via the countless parts of the human condition. Most importantly, it's never afraid to laugh at life's absurdity.
Praise for TIMHS
"This volume is a work of love. Each poem is a well-crafted gem, the rhythms and rhymes honed and polished, the turns of phrase masterfully rendered, the arguments cogent and solid. The messages conveyed, oftentimes mischievous and playful, sometimes...sweetly sentimental, tug at the reader..."
—Margaret Wong, PhD, Professor of Literature & Composition
"Being busy operating the Ogunquit Playhouse, I kept putting this off. What a mistake! Reading this is to truly have a conversation. Whether comic or serious, Brand's turn of phrase is perfectly pitched. Many of us feel we aren't cut out for poetry, but my appetite now is well and truly whetted. Poetry was never like this in school!"
—Kent Bridges, Managing Director of Ogunquit Playhouse
"Brand's poems are humorous and often moving. I very much admire his "argument" for the Augustans not only in its wording but its tone and elegance. His lyrical poems recall Betjeman and Larkin, and there are of course echoes of Harrison's earthiness. The range of form and tonality...works very well, shifting seamlessly from high language to demotic. For a lover of a well-turned line or a surprising rhyme, there are any number of real pleasures here. This is a fine collection."
—Mark Bates, PhD, Professor of English
