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 Herald
