About this product
Product Information
Roger McGough is one of Britain's best loved poets and this collection 'charts his passage from youthful exuberance to the wry reflection of his later years. What remains the same throughout the 40 years is the poet's winning wit, accessibility and abiding readability' Independent ---------------------------------- 'Time has confirmed ... that McGough's talent was much more substantial than many of his long-forgotten detractors suspected. If he was a pop poet it was not in any ephemeral sense. A shy extrovert ... he has given voice to poetry and found a voice of his own which is humourful, introspective, irreverent, easy on the ear, conversational. It is also memorable and enduring and fresh. Age has not withered his lines nor diminished their potency. Of how much modern poetry can you say that?' Sunday HeraldProduct Identifiers

Just because it says "Poems" do not be put off - great fun to read.
Never having been a reader of any sort of poetry, I came across an example of Roger McGough's early work and loved it's irreverence and humour so I decided to get more of it. Not disappointed. Excellent coffee table book to dip into every now and then for some instant entertainment.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Brilliant,poets should be read and listened to in order to put some sort of perspective to the human condition.
It is only when you read the poems written over a number of years that you realise how incredibly well Roger McGough uses words to give a universal mirror to all of our life experiences. Here are encapsulated the heights and depths of human emotions.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
