The poems delve into the life of the poet's grandfather, reflecting on his experiences in the British Royal Air Force across India, China, and Iraq. Themes of travel, personal expectations, and resistance to authority are prevalent, as the poet uncovers unique stories and perspectives from diverse cultures and landscapes.
