"After Francis Amunategui": The appearance of a hot sausage with its salad of potatoes in oil can leave nobody indifferent ...it is pure, it precludes all sentimentality, it is the Truth.
John James is one of the most highly respected poets of his generation. In this volume all his major works are gathered together from Mmm ... Ah Yes (1967) to Schlegel Eats a Bagel (1996). In addition, a number of hard to obtain poems are also reprinted, including A Former Boiling (1979) and The Ghost of Jimi Hendrix at Stokesay Castle (1988).
