About this title

Synopsis:

Tales from the Woods is the latest collection of original poetry by poet, publisher and maverick multimillionaire Felix Dennis. Beautifully illustrated throughout with colour-washed pen and ink illustrations by artist Bill Sanderson, here are 50 evocative poems, celebrating trees and their part in our landscape, written by the biggest private planter of broadleaf trees in Britain.

Imbued with a deep love of the countryside, a warm, lyrical touch, and an often wry commentary to each poem, the book comes with a foreword by the head of the Tree Council. It will be published with Dennis's normal panache and accompanied by endorsements by his many supporters.

Lauded by the likes of Tom Wolfe and John Walsh, Tales from the Woods makes an elegant addition to poetry lovers' shelves.

About the Author:

Felix Dennis was imprisoned in 1971 as co-editor of OZ magazine. After his acquittal on appeal, he founded his own magazine publishing company in 1973 and made millions with the sale of PC World and MacUser in the mid-eighties. Today, Dennis Publishing remains a privately owned company with headquarters in London and New York City. Titles include The Week, Auto Express, Maxim, Men's Fitness and Computer Shopper. The annual Sunday Times Rich List estimates that Felix Dennis is the 88th richest individual in the UK. Following a life-threatening illness, his first collection of poetry, A Glass Half Full was published by Hutchinson and the second, Lone Wolf, in 2004. His other interests include planting trees and he divides his time between homes in Warwickshire, London, New York, Connecticut and the Caribbean island of Mustique.
