Description
The collected works of the patron saint of poetry, Roger McGough.
For sixty years, Roger McGough has thrilled and delighted generations of readers with his irreverent, intimate, and ever-original poetry. The Collected Poems presents the definitive selection of his very best work, from the Mersey-soaked sound of his quintessential Sixties start, through to tender meditations on fatherhood and family, and on to political send-ups, pandemic playfulness, and brilliant new writing.
Here, then, is an unmatched store of warmth, wisdom, and feeling from Britain's most beloved poet.
