Stressing the Essential - John O'Loughlin - Bog

This collection of mainly philosophical poems, written during 1982, may serve to confirm that John O'Loughlin had considerably deepened his approach to and concept of poetry since 1973-4, principally with those poems included in the poetry and prose compilation 'From the Beginning', and the result should not prove displeasing to anyone who would prefer to see him primarily as a philosopher (albeit an unashamedly self-taught one) who occasionally dabbles in other things, including poetry.
