In this new collection of his work, there's a wide variety of subject-matter and approach. His longer poem, 'Journey of the Taf, traces the river's journey from watershed to sea; a sequence of poems on the Troubles of Northern Ireland takes many viewpoints, including that of a car and chair! He pays homage to poets, dead and alive and there's verse voicing concern about threats of a seagull on Cardiff Central station. Through all his work, the poet's wit and passion is pervasive. 'Will provide chuckles, inspiration and food for thought. Unreservedly recommended!' - Ceri Shaw (americymru), about 'BARKIN!'
