Download I Threw a Stone: A Collection of Poems AudioBook Free
A collection of poems from the front-line of metropolitan life, the cabs of lorries, and the bluebell woods of mortality. Oscar Sparrow was born in 1949 as the sonic growth of jets and newborns began to draw a fresh world map of umbilical vapour tracks. He was brought up on cod liver oil and National Health orange drink. As the color red leached its way out of the map of the English Empire, Oscar went to a die-hard Chapel school designed to create noble savages to serve what was still left of the savage Nobles. The Eleven Plus exam disclosed that he cannot even depend to 11 and he became a auto technician, labourer, truck drivers, boxer, and poet. He read Wordsworth and Ford Cortina guides in a lorry cab near both Oxford and Cambridge Colleges. Eventually, he found himself in London where he joined up with the Metropolitan Police force. Car chases and riots adopted but he did not take it privately. He put in his spare time touring the Free galleries, performing Piaf, and learning French and Italian. Eventually, The Specialists dropped for the con and gave him a desk job in the Artwork section of Interpol London at Scotland Backyard. Throughout all of this time he was a would-be poet, short story writer and novelist. To Oscar, poetry is the spoken phrase, so that it was natural to create an audiobook of the poems, read by the writer.
