4.0 out of 5 stars Wide-ranging, joyful collection, 10 Sep 2004
By T. Bently "tbently" (Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
There are all sorts of ways to discover new poets. I found Pugh on a "Poems on the Undergound" poster. "Sometimes" was a wonderful meditation on hope, imbued with a bright sense of optimism, like a happy Larkin.

In this collection there are many other joys. I particulary liked "Intercity Lullaby", as the poet contemplates two football supporters sleeping on a train with something approaching maternal feeling.

Elsewhere snooker, zoos and gardening provide inspiration. Pugh is thoughtful and surprising in her unpredictability. There is scant repetition either as a literary device or in subject matter.

As the cover blurb says, "Poetry is such a rare event it is a surprise to find it bursting out all over".
