Description
Martin’s most recent book is a somewhat autobiographical collection of essays, poems, and a play that reflect decades of Martin’s life, from his childhood living in a tiny flat on the top floor of “a three-story red brick Victorian house” in Cambridge, England, where he frolicked with his cocker spaniel, Kibby, in a magical back garden, to his work as a photojournalist stopped by irregular soldiers outside Benghazi, Libya, during the rise of Muammar Gaddafi.
He touches on phases of his life in Africa, Alaska, Cayman Brac, and his wide-ranging career in journalism, theater, and, most recently, founder of the Mangrove Education Project.
Martin’s poetry touches on numerous themes, private and public, personal and political, and reflects his sure touch as a master of the language.
