An updated selection of Roger McGough's finest, best-loved verse. The complete span of McGough's writing, from the 1960s to the new millennium, is represented. 'McGough's trademarks: the craft worn as lightly as the crown, the jokes that are something more, the underlying heartache, the acute sense of the way time slips away' Ian McMillan, Poetry Review 'McGough has done for poetry what champagne does for weddings' Time Out

Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Following his early success as one of the Liverpool poets, Roger McGough has gone on to establish himself as one of the most powerful and distinctive voices in modern poetry. Selected Poems 1967-1987 collects twenty years of work in one volume. Apart from his considerable service to the progress of popularity of poetry itself, Roger McGough is the urban poet who celebrates the people and the trappings of the city. For many, particularly the young and those who have experienced the upheavals and wider social changes of the last twenty-five years, McGough's work has a relevance and immediacy which makes it seem like an invigorating wind (and sometimes a sharp blast) blowing through the traditional corridors of poetry. Literary trends come and go, reputations flare up and disappear, but Roger McGough's popularity continues to increase. Committed fans as well as a new generation of readers will welcome this collection of poems. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR004381448
