John Betjeman's verse is poignantly evocative of the agonies and delights of growing up. In this collection his adoration of athletic sports girls is celebrated, his tender vision of the landscapes of Cornwall, Pontefract and the London suburbs is vividly evoked, and his ambiguous attitude towards Christianity wittily expressed.
