Red boards, gilt lettering, bottom spine edge lightly bumped. This book won the Authors' Club First Novel Award and has been followed by two further novels, The Long Shadows and A Funny Old Year.

In using that title I also hoped to suggest that the 'hero' of the novel had not found the right way to tell his enemies what he thought of them, had in fact been corrupted and assimilated by them. Critics who disliked the novel still thought the way I told the jokes in it was acceptable. All books are in my smoke free & climate controlled shop and will have qualities and/or flaws described.

He is perennially concerned with the impact of momentous events and changes on day-to-day life; his acute sense of detail recently earned him the soudriquet, in the TLS, of 'the doyen of the diurnal'. In this new collection, he juxtaposes religious belief and unbelief, transmutes quirky social observation into poetry, indulges jokes and fantasies, and praises - or commemorates - friends. The poem which provides the title of the collection is an unconventional and mysterious celebration of his life; for which, in the words of Sean O'Brien, his poetry shows 'an undiminished appetite'.…
