We're delighted to announce the release of Michael Franks' book Poems from the Road.

These poems were written over a period of several years.
Some have found their way into his music.

Each copy has been personally signed by Michael.

".. throughout my career as a songwriter, poems have always waited patiently in the foyer of my mind, knocking with polite persistence until they were invited in.

"These poems were written mostly on the Road, with lines or fragments of images occasionally surfacing as I waited in airports around the world for connecting flights. I'd capture them hurriedly in pencil in a little Moleskine journal I carry in the side flap of my rollaboard. Usually they weren't hammered into shape until I returned home and had the leisure, between gigs, to improve and expand them. Some of these saved shells were just ideas for poems which I'd write down on hotel stationery or on the back of boarding passes and find months later while cleaning out the pockets of my suitcase."
