Synopsis:

This anthology of poetic parodies celebrate not only the poems of English and American literature but also the experience of travelling by London Underground and London Transport's fleets of buses. The parodies have featured in the London magazine "Midweek" during 1995. Poets whose works have been subject to parody include Philip Larkin. Poems include "Tube, or not Tube: that is the question" and "The Song of Hiawalthamstow".
