COLLECTED POEMS - KINGSLEY AMIS KARTONIERT (TB)

'One of the very best of our poets' Anthony PowellKingsley Amis wrote poems throughout his life
turning his acerbic  bracing perceptiveness on the same subjects that fill his novels: lust 
lost love  drink  money  God (seen as indifferent or malign)  and old age. Collected Poems 
arranged chronologically  shows the full range of his sparkling verse  by turns scabrous and
melancholy  satirical and playful.'Scathingly funny ... bawdy and tragic  unflinching and
unapologetic  culpable and morally acute ... Amis's poems rush headlong into the messiness of
life' New Criterion'A contender for the title of the most accomplished and least self-satisfied
poet of his generation' Clive James
