I'd Rather You Lied: Selected Poems 1980-1998

I'd Rather You Lied: Selected Poems 1980-1998 Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Selected from over thirty-five published collections, I'd rather you lied brings together a life-time's work of one of the most remarkable and unorthodox voices of the late twentieth century. Accompanied by woodcuts and drawings from now rare or unattainable originals.

I'd rather you lied sees Billy Childish take his rightful place as the poet laureate of the underdog.

New poems featured in I'd rather you lied include a sad donky and a fat man smiling, which received a Commendation in the 1997 National Poetry Competition. (and was performed on Radio 4's Loose Ends?)

Synopsis:

Selected Poems 1980-1998. The bizarre poetry of a cult genius.
