As an independent publisher, Jeremy Robson always punched above his
weight with a roster of authors that have been the envy of many
large publishers. As a poet, he has been at the centre of the
poetry scene since the 1960s, with a number of highly praised
volumes to his credit and the friendship of many leading poets and
musicians. In this engrossing memoir, Robson looks back at both his
publishing career and life as a poet. Stories abound; whether it be
driving Muhammad Ali around Britain, coping with Michael Winner or
working in the desert with David Ben-Gurion. Time spent joyously
laughing with Maureen Lipman and Alan Coren while undertaking an
exciting poetry reading tour with Ted Hughes, and packing the Royal
Festival Hall for a historic poetry and jazz concert. Jeremy
recounts treasured and life-long friendships with the poets and
writers; Dannie Abse, Alan Sillitoe, Vernon Scannell, Laurie Lee,
Yevgeny Yevtushenko, Elie Wiesel and Frederic Raphael. Well known
and celebrated as both publisher and poet, Jeremy Robson has
produced a delicious memoir that will delight the reader.
