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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePRAISE FOR ROGER MCGOUGH\u003cbr\u003eA witty and ingenious chronicler of British life with a deftness and agility that is hard to beat.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePoetry Society\u003cbr\u003eThe patron saint of poetry\u003cbr\u003eCarol Ann Duffy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMcGough has done for poetry what champagne does for weddings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTime Out\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 108g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 128 x 197 x 16 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780241517352\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roger McGough","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44100924408058,"sku":"9780241517352","price":7.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/cbc580ca2f3a062d76c1a39520868c50.jpg?v=1637819778","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/safety-in-numbers","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
