Description: "In these delightful poems, Alexander McCall Smith writes about his travels, from Africa to Greece, London to Dubai, and back home to Scotland. He shares his gentle, inimitably McCall Smith-esque observations on life, love, and beauty, reminding us how deeply satisfying it can be to take in the world around us with all our senses, and with all our mind and heart"--
Review Quotes: "This volume ... adds to an already rich and full bibliography, and perhaps the only surprise is [McCall Smith's] diversion toward poetry as a genre; the humanity, warmth, and intelligence are all familiar. . . . Meeting the creator of Mma. Ramotswe in another guise, as a gentle guide through life in many climates, is likely to prove irresistible for Alexander McCall Smith's dedicated fan base." --Library Journal
"As you might expect, [McCall Smith's] verse displays an unabashed Old World graciousness." --Washington Post
