A personal ramble around the book world from the man who has experienced all sides of it.
This book has something for everyone: writers, academics, critics and other enthusiasts in search of a no-holds-barred personal history; administrators wishing to navigate the obstacle course that is funding writers and writing; fans hunting data on the Poetry wars of the 70s, and fellow litterateurs who will want to check whether they have received a mention in these pages. Few others in Wales know the business and how we got here like Finch does. And few others will have been capable of reporting back in such an entertaining fashion.
“Finch is so good because of his constant need to create and recreate, and his refusal to accept barriers” – Ian Macmillan
“intelligent, irreverent and often genuinely funny” – Vernon Scannell, Ambit
“Finch deserves a Welsh knighthood” – Richard Kostelanetz
"I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish... Finch deploys the right amount of irreverence and respect to tell his stories" – Desmond Clifford, Nation.Cymru
