Details

The poems collected here, familiar and unfamiliar, are all much travelled. The great themes of poetry - love, death, war, time, the natural world - sit here alongside comic nonsense and traditional street cries, apparently at random, like passengers on a crowded train. Long-time travellers on the London Underground may recognise these poems as their fellow passengers: in the first five years of ‘Poems on the Underground’, they all appeared as posters on Underground trains, between ads for temps and toothpaste, put there to bring pleasure to the working day. This new Revised Edition of 100 Poems on the Underground, published on the project's 40th anniversary, once again allows these poems to be seen together, to be read again and remembered with affection.
