As Far as I Know" is a wonderful new book of poems by Roger Mc Gough the nations favourite poet. Take comfort from this. You have a book in your hand not a loaded gun or a parking fine or an invitation card to the wedding of the one you should have married. Roger Mc Goughs new book of poems shows him writing as fluently & inventively as ever. There may be a stronger strain of melancholy than before (the death of a regular in the local pub; the news that a daughter might be moving abroad) as well as a distinct sense of menace small but insistent which inhabits many of the poems. But there is plenty of Mc Goughs characteristic wit & wordplay too including a scintillating series of haiku inspired by a London tube strike & a striking reworking of his famous 1960s poem " Let Me Die a Youngmans Death" this time entitled " Not For Me a Youngmans Death". Who but Mc Gough would characterize the butchers window as the friendly face of the abattoir or imagine the almost limitless ways in which we might go to bed? A new book of poems by Roger Mc Gough is always an event. Published just ahead of his 75th birthday " As Far As I Know" is truly cause for celebration. " The patron saint of poetry". (Carol Ann Duffy). Roger Mc Gough was born in Liverpool. During the 1960s he was a member of the group Scaffold which had an international hit with Lily the Pink. He has won two BAFTAs & a Royal Television Award for his broadcasting work & presents the popular Radio 4 programme " Poetry Please". He has published many books of poems for adults & children & both his " Collected Poems" (2003) & " Selected Poems" (2006) are bestselling poetry titles on the Penguin list. He was made a Freeman of the City of Liverpool in 2001 & received a CBE in 2004 for his services to literature." ...
