- More about Safety in Numbers
In times of uncertainty, adultery is not the way to impress your lover. Roger McGough's new collection, Safety in Numbers, explores the strange times we live in, from lost tongues and violins to rising oceans, and reveals the telling moments of our lives from surprising angles with unexpected voices.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 112 pages
Publication date: 11 November 2021
Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd
This is not the time for adultery. Your lover will fail to be impressed, not so much by the face mask and stale musk of sanitizing gel, but your flouting of the rules. At once funny and moving, Safety in Numbers is the new collection from the nation's favourite poet. Traversing new yet timeless terrain with his signature wit and intimacy, Roger McGough brings to life the very strangeness of our times. From lost tongues and violins to rising oceans, from adulterers in lockdown to ghosts in line, we may live in dark times and yet find ourselves laughing. From surprising angles and with unexpected voices, McGough, a trickster you can trust, reveals the telling moments of our lives.
