Written over a number of decades and covering a wide range of experiences and aspects of life, Today and Yesterday has been described as: "A compelling and poignant collection of poetry … the vivid and colourful verse will captivate readers, drawing them into each piece and holding them until the very end. … The intricate and intriguing themes will leave many readers reflecting on their own lives and experiences as they are taken on an extraordinary and thought-provoking journey." This new book of poetry from David McMichael seeks to attain a balance between the modern and the traditional, the real and the dreamlike, 'today and yesterday'. Only the reader can decide to what extent this is achieved.
