Jetty View Holding (Paperback)

Philip Ruthen studied English literature and linguistics at UWIST, Cardiff, after formative years from 1964 in Merton and Sutton, Surrey. He gained an MA in English Literature at Warwick University. His poetry, short fiction, book reviews and associated articles have appeared in a wide variety of publications, in the UK and abroad, and is proud to say he has been termed a 'small-press poet' by some from their headier realms. In these strongly delineated poems, Philip Ruthen takes us from the Peppermint Lounge in Cardiff to Southbank's Festival Hall -- and from Spain and Denmark to France -- by train and by tube, and through the meanderings of the poetic imagination.
