  Chris Wallace-Crabbe has made this selection to represent nearly forty years of his writing, from 1956 to the present day, and it aims to include poems that still `work', according to the judgements of friends, anthologists, critics, and not least himself. He also intends the poems to bear witness to past selves. From early work, based in Australian suburbs, Chris Wallace-Crabbe has turned to more public themes, and become the cosmopolitan poet who can be both witty and very moving, of more recent books. This book is intended for poetry readers.
