Synopsis

Readers familiar with Pushkin will be able to judge Brian Spalding's success in his attempt at that most criticised of tasks - completing a great author's work. Others can simply enjoy these five poems, written with just the right combination of respect and irreverence - and humour. And perhaps they may be prompted to go to the originals. Postscripts to Pushkin: Four Versions and an Ending is a colourful collection of narrative poems in which the author presents the familiar personages of Cleopatra and Mozart, as well as introducing some new ones in the form of the improvisatore Lippo Lippi, in whichever guise he may choose, himself (and others) to amuse.
