Cultural Writing. A GALLERY TO PLAY TO is an intimate account of the lives of the poets Adrian Henri, Roger McGough and Brian Patten. Both a critical survey and an unashamed celebration, Phil Bowen speedily pinpoints the enormous social and cultural changes that post-war Britain has undergone. With unparalleled access to the three writers, he has written an indispensable book for anyone interested in poetry, popular culture and society over the last forty years.
