Exits and Entrances: Selected Poems

By Paul Hollingworth

Exits and Entrances is a selection of poems, spanning four decades, by Paul Hollingworth.
Hollingworth incorporates different styles from lyricism, elegy, and rap influences to enhance a resonant statement on varied subjects such as birth and loss, psychosis, redemption, technology, the financial sector, social disorder, and a favourite film or song.
Location is important to his work. Hollingworth takes the reader on a journey to the high Andes of Peru and Chile, to Glasgow, to Canvey Estuary, and to a family home in Andalucia.

Paul Hollingworth

Born in Goldhawk Road in 1965, Paul Hollingworth started writing poetry in his teenage years. At school, he founded a Poetry Society. Paul went to University in Glasgow which like Latin America serves as a constant inspiration to many of his poems in Exits and Entrances. Paul believes in the life balance between the discipline of words, art, and numbers. He has worked in financial markets for 30 years and is an investment valuation specialist. Paul sees poetry as an anchor, a constant companion, acting as a therapeutic remembrance or prophetic space or bridge between a physical reality and the divine subconscious of dream.
