This latest collection also looks at England with new eyes."I like the cosmopolitanism of these poems. This is not just a matter of crossing national frontiers with ease, but a seemingly boundless curiosity about human behaviour at all levels."Christopher Reid on Rina's War"It's not often that a book of poetry makes me laugh out loud, but this one did, in delighted recognition of what is embarrassing, absurd, so British. It's masterly."Anne Berkeley on 'The Red Zone' in Seam"Reading his dazzling little vignettes about a whoring, drinking, greasy-palmed yet colourfully enticing world, I'm glad I need not encounter such people and places. And this is a compliment."Michael Tolkien on 'The Red Zone' in AmbitJulian Stannard taught English and American Literature at the University of Genoa for many years.
