Adrian Plass to release first book of poetry

Authentic Media is bringing to print Silences and Nonsenses, a twenty-five year collection of poetry written by best-selling author Adrian Plass.

Thousands of people have been moved to re-examine themselves listening to Adrian Plass perform.

His verse always prompts a response as we are led to laugh at ourselves, alter our preconceived ideas, or cry out to God in gratitude for the life he has given to us.

Funny, poignant, challenging and downright hysterical – these poems will delight readers.

Adrian enthused: "I am feeling like a small child who's been promised a big treat. I am so very excited that a collection of my poems is being published in my twenty-fifth year of writing and speaking.

"They may not all be brilliant, but they have brought a lot of laughter, tears and all sorts of other things to me and to other people over the years. A silver touch on this year of years."

Silences and Nonsenses – Collected poetry, doggerel and whimsy will be available early August.
