City Sonnets presents a poet's view of modern city life in all its variety. Thirty-six sonnets written in traditional form explore the dark and the light, the rich and the poor, the ugly and the beautiful. There are poems about a beggar, cathedrals, van drivers and concert halls, cats and rats and many other topics. Each one has a colour illustration that complements the vivid evocation of urban existence in the verse. The writing explores what it means to be a human being living among many others, with all the tensions, anxieties, pleasures and joys that they experience. The sonnet form, with its fourteen lines, regular metre and rhyming scheme, brings a sharp focus on the practicalities and dreams of city living.

Bradley, Jonathan: - Jonathan Bradley is a writer and poet, and City Sonnets is his fourth published collection of poetry. Much of his work focuses on the relationship between people and their environments, including the natural world and urban landscapes. His poems have been included in several other books and poetry magazines, most recently The Alchemy Spoon. He has made a number of public readings of his work at literary events and has contributed articles to many periodicals. Jonathan is a Director of the War Poets Association and a member of the Council of the European Centre for Peace and Development in Belgrade. He divides his time between homes near Bristol and in the Languedoc in southern France, and has travelled widely during a varied professional career in business and the academic world.
