Roger McGough's new book of poems contains his own unique spin on innocence and experience: here are poems about his docker father and his new young daughter, poems about how, in his dreams, he gave the idea of Hey Jude to McCartney and advised Dylan to go electric, poems about jugglers and human cannonballs, poems about sad music and the sad eclipses of everyday life. 'A true poet who travels deceptively light in what are often the dark places' John Mole, TES 'A true original and more than one generation would be much the poorer without him' The Times
