Autorenporträt

Australian author Dudley Skelley presents Let's Begin Again for the New Millennium, an anthology of 21 socially conscious poems about potential solutions to human problems - especially liquidity traps (scarcity of credit) and environmental issues. Let's Begin Again exhorts that humanity has failed to take proper stewardship of the planet due to insufficient credit, denounces financial fraud and manipulations that lead to over-inflation, and proposes a new emergency fund through the UN to issue non-repayable grants to resource-poor nations, thereby ending poverty, and ideally promoting the renewable energy source of geothermal power for the needs of the twenty-first century. (Credit and funding is essential to this last idea, since more scientific research is needed to maximize the efficiency of geothermal power on a large scale). The free-verse poems challenge the reader to think about tackling serious global challenges head-on, and the pages of text at the end spell out the author's revolutionary ideas in detail. Let's Begin Again for the New Millennium may not have all of the answers, but today's complex world definitely needs as many problem-solving suggestions and recommendations it can get! "Going Forward" Never look back / Except to learn, / Look forward to the truth / With a sense of worldly purpose, / For that's the way ahead. Susan Bethany Reviewer Midwest Book Review
