Careful What You Wish for

By Peter Sansom

A night in Matlock Bath, an Ode to Indolence, a boy running the ploughed fields of cross-country, and the 1975 Reading Festival, Careful What You Wish For is winter mornings lit by the tame volcano of a lava lamp, and it is Camus, St-Exup ry, and Ken Dodd. Also it is Robert Lowell in a canal boat just outside Mirfield, not to mention family poems and love and tennis poems, and the biggest comeback in golf history--as told by the caddy. Peter Sansom's latest collection is clear-eyed, tender, and full of bewilderment by what life is and does.
