paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Paperback. Condition: Good. There is something wonderfully specific about Penguin Modern Poets 6 (1967) ?a slim, unassuming paperback that looks like it might contain a few poems to pass the time, but in fact carries the quiet ambition of redefining how poetry should sound, feel, and occasionally unsettle you. Featuring Jack Clemo, Edward Lucie-Smith, and George MacBeth, this is one of those curated Penguin volumes that manages to be both very of its time and oddly resistant to it. Published in 1967, when poetry was still expected to do something meaningful (or at least look like it was trying), this collection gathers three distinct voices and places them side by side, like guests at a dinner party who may or may not get along. Clemo brings a stark, elemental intensity shaped by isolation and landscape; Lucie-Smith offers a more urbane, polished perspective, the kind that suggests he knows exactly what he?s doing (and might be quietly judging you for not quite keeping up); and MacBeth moves between the two with a tone that feels both contemporary and faintly restless, as though aware that poetry itself might be under scrutiny. The result is not so much a unified collection as a literary conversation?sometimes harmonious, sometimes slightly awkward, but always interesting. You can dip in and out, compare styles, pick favourites, or simply enjoy the fact that Penguin once thought it perfectly reasonable to package three poets together and trust the reader to sort it out. Condition-wise, this copy is listed as Good , which in Crappy Old Books language suggests a life well-lived rather than one carefully preserved. Expect some wear to the cover, a spine that has softened with time, and pages that may carry the faint echoes of previous readers?perhaps a student, perhaps a poet in waiting, perhaps someone who bought it in 1972 with every intention of becoming more cultured. It has, in short, the right kind of history for a book that has spent decades quietly insisting on its relevance. It?s not flashy. It won?t demand your attention. But it will sit there, modestly, ready to remind you that poetry doesn?t always arrive with fanfare?sometimes it comes in a small Penguin paperback, slightly worn, slightly enigmatic, and entirely confident that you?ll come back to it when you?re ready. A quietly thoughtful addition to any shelf, and a fine way to say: yes, I do occasionally read poetry? or at least I keep it within reach .
