Selling Manhattan by Carol Ann Duffy
The poems in Carol Ann Duffy's highly praised second collection range from the dramatic monologues for which she is noted to love poems, which she writes, Robert Nye remarked, 'as if she were the first to do so'.
'One of those rare books that is immediately enjoyable yet will repay many re-readings'Vernon Scannell, Poetry Review
