'A hilarious book of bad times, bedtimes and benders. It is a kind
of cool parody of On the Road.' New Statesman No Particular Place
to Go (first published in 1981) relates Hugo Williams's journey
across the USA on a three-month poetry-reading tour wherein he also
hoped to discover some of the America he had imagined for so long
on the strength of its all-consuming popular culture. 'No
Particular Place to Go isn't a book that you'd take on a visitor's
itinerary of the States . . . But the journey it describes is a
potent one . . . It offered a poet's eye on modern culture, a cool,
sideways perspective on its consumers and an enviable traveller's
voice - not just unafraid of meeting the locals but positively keen
to jump in and grab whatever was on offer.' John Walsh, Independent
General
