Reviews
Their essays combine to form a remarkable celebration of the integrity, depth, learning, intelligence and politics of Britain's most important living poet: the bard of Leeds. * Sean Sheehan, Scottish Left Review *
Edith Hall has skilfully edited this disparate collection into an affectionate tribute and an appreciative overview of his poetry. The volume makes a good introduction to the poet and his work, while celebrating TH at 80. * Alan Beale, Classics for all *
