Upstairs Downstairs 8 April 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
This book of poetry is a real treat. It's a bit like Upstairs Downstairs, the British Class System. I wish there were more biographical details about the authors of the poems. Are any written by a supercomputer as I suspect? The 'Upstairs' poems are pure plagiarism but the 'Downstairs' poems are not.
