Customer Reviews

Sly....

If you liked the subversiveness of Ogden Nash, you'll love these beastly little verses! Plus, the presentation is exquisite: Shiny purple box with a wicked-looking rabbit behind the wheel of a car on the cover, opening up to two hidden compartments, one each for the cassette and book, each compartment whimiscally illustrated with bull dogs and ducks! NICE.

Further ramblings from the artist/poet

In this now out of print volume, Bantock explores the spoken word. For anyone who has enjoyed the visual stimuli of the Griffin & Sabine books, or the mesmerizing narrative of The Venitian' Wife, or the Forgetting Room. The poetry calls to mind a more off-beat Shel Silverstein. Highly recommended.
