In each case the selection has been made to illustrated the poet's characteristics in style and form. The ten earlier volumes are still available and further volumes are in preparation.' (Quote taken from the back cover) The series eventually ran to 27 volumes, published between 1962 and 1979. ***'The Liverpool poets are a number of influential 1960s poets from Liverpool, England, influenced by 1950s Beat poetry. They were involved in the 1960s Liverpool scene that gave rise to The Beatles. Their work is characterised by its directness of expression, simplicity of language, suitability for live performance and concern for contemporary subjects and references. There is often humour, but the full range of human experience and emotion is addressed. "The kids didn't see this poetry with a capital 'p', they understood it as modern entertainment, as part of the pop-movement."' (Roger McGough - Wiki) ***First printing of the revised and enlarged edition, in the original card covers.
