Cult experimental novel from the late William Hayward first published by Heinemann in 1964.Follows the progress of Bran Lynch, Irish ex-poet, and a group of refugees from employment. Shows influences of the Beats and modernists such as James Joyce: 'a raucous combustion of jazz, sex and cider.'

Peter Carpenter's poems explore our recent history in writing, teaching and politics with both wit and insight. Steely Dan are here, and so are Cambridge, the Thames and Venice, but above all these are poems about love and family.
