讀書樂編號：4612
推介人： 黃韻玲校友
The poems in this illustrated book are accessible to many readers, both young and old. They consider what it is like to be a human being in this modern world, drawing inspiration mainly from the people whom the writer has encountered, especially in Hong Kong. Sightings conveys playfulness and ironic humour. The writer displays, "a strong ethical sense and a constant and engaging lyricism". (Marion Bethel, Bahamian poet) Mrs Margaret Clarke notices Bickley's, "talent for turning the stuff of ordinary life into poetry. She continually surprises and delights by making fresh connections between seemingly disparate situations as in 'Leaves: Street Sweeper and Teacher Compared'."
