<p><b>''One of the very best of our poets'' Anthony Powell</b><br><br>Kingsley Amis wrote poems throughout his life, turning his acerbic, bracing perceptiveness on the same subjects that fill his novels: lust, lost love, drink, money, God (seen as indifferent or malign), and old age. <i>Collected Poems</i>, arranged chronologically, shows the full range of his sparkling verse, by turns scabrous and melancholy, satirical and playful.<br><br>''Scathingly funny ... bawdy and tragic, unflinching and unapologetic, culpable and morally acute ... Amis''s poems rush headlong into the messiness of life'' <i>New Criterion</i><br><br>''A contender for the title of the most accomplished and least self-satisfied poet of his generation'' Clive James</p>
