From the poem "Princess Ice Cream" Welcome to Michael McAllen's collection of witty, opinionated and technically assured poetry written during that strange decade, the 1970s. It includes poems about love lost, gained or never-quite-achieved, Hollywood and the British theatre scene, along with vers d'occasion, pop song parodies, political diatribes from both sides of the Atlantic, and portraits - not¿always flattering - of various celebrities of the¿time.

Autorenporträt
Michael McAllen regrets reaching the age of 80 without making any meaningful contribution to the world - no children conceived or reared, no building designed or built, no sporting or artistic achievements, no vaccines discovered, no export orders gained. These humble verses are the best he has to offer and if anybody should remember more than two lines of any of them, that would be a success. Michael is a long-term sufferer with Parkinson's Disease.
