About this title

Synopsis

The British multimillionaire and publishing mogul brings together 187 of his sly and irreverent poems, in which he explores such topics as sex, ecology, the Third Reich, old dogs, whales, and the Crusades in his trademark, unorthodox style, accompanied by an audio CD of the author reading from his work. Original. 25,000 first printing.

Review

"Seriously good stuff - great quality and memorability. At least one of these poems with be instantly anthologised." (Melvyn Bragg)

"A Glass Half Full blew me away. Dennis is a crouching tiger poised to wreak havoc among the bleating lambs of modern English poetry." (Mick Farren)

"He writes like a man obsessed. If Waugh were still alive, he would fall on Dennis' verse with a glad cry of recognition and approval" (John Walsh, The Independent)

"Marvellous stuff...the unpredictable Felis Dennis, long known for publishing other things, now bursts forth as a 21st Century Kipling" (Tom Wolfe)
