In this introductory collection of his poetry, Vic Blake works from his roots up, starting with some of his very earliest work and bringing it up to date as an older man during Covid Lockdown. Here we begin with poems for and about children and move on to the universal themes of love and loss, and pleasure and pain, but always - and unusually - with an eye that is profoundly reflexive about his own gender as a man. As one early reader put it, 'Vic Blake is a man on a mission' [with] 'rhymes that are "fizzing" with energy, but gentleness too will get a space'. And so, too, will fun.
