My review of this excellent book is up at The High Window.

If I were into snappy sub editor sound bites I'd go for 'Does for London's Kings Cross what Geoffrey of Monmouth did for Britain'.

Liam Guilar: This is Liam Guilar's Blog, mostly about poetry, mine and other people's, and anything else of interest. Over the years it has unintentionally developed into an online poetry resource, check the names in the sidebar but Bunting, Yeats, Pound, Joyce, Tennyson and the medieval poets get fair coverage. Lady Godiva and Me is a sequence of poems that linked Lady Godiva, both the historical Godgifu and the legendary Lady G, to a character growing up in the city of Coventry after the second world war. You can see a short film about the collection Here. Further information, full length articles and sample poems are available on my website Here .
