— Review of Yonder Blue Wild : Travel and Places : Poems 1972-2017 2017 selected work poetry ; Poor Man's Coat 2018 selected work poetry'Award-winning author S K Kelen beautifully explores the theme of travel in his collection Yonder Blue Wild. For some, travel is a benefit awarded to them by virtue of their class; for some it is a tool to attain an idealised version of the life they want to lead. For others, travel is something they have no choice in. The connecting thread is indeed a kind of escapism, and an attempt to express, through movement from place to place, one’s own humanity. In that expression hides stories untold.' (Introduction)
