OUT OF THE NORTH
Tracy Patrick's new pamphlet, Out of the North, published by Maytree Press, is 'a unique and original long poem sequence' based on the life of the Reverend Joseph Johnston in his letters to the Paisley & Renfrewshire Gazette during the First World War.
'It's 1914 and the start of the First World War. In Paisley, the Reverend Joseph Johnston delivers a sermon condemning the war and the failure of society and religion to stop it. His sermon is printed in the Paisley & Renfrewshire Gazette. Later, whilst serving in France, he continues to provide an individual commentary by letters in which he describes the true horror of war and, in contrast, his deep and untainted affection for the soldiers he serves.'
