Ahead of Us
Written by Dennis Haskell
Buy the Ebook
Ahead of Us is Haskell’s eighth book of poetry. Dedicated to his wife Rhonda, who lost her battle with cancer after a long illness, Ahead of Us contains poems of love, of two people forging a partnership together and of the inevitable end of that partnership when one person dies.
It is a celebration of life and and of the fragile thread that holds us here.
All author royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to Cancer Council WA.
