About this title

From the Author

What my readers say
The author, Pat Mullan , May 27, 2000 What my readers say ...... about CHILDHOOD HILLS .....the following are quotes from unsolicited e-mails received from my readers:

"I can only read one poem at a time and then walk away for a while - the imagery can be overwhelming"

"I am sitting here with a very lovely book in my hands entitled CHILDHOOD HILLS and I would like to thank the author for bringing such personal thoughts home to me"

"My favorite poem is the first one 'Childhood Hills' - it sounds like a Van Morrison song"

"I have just read 'The Lie' and 'The Quarry Hole' and started to cry - and it's Saturday, for God's sake, and sunny, and only 9:00 a.m."
