David Starkey’s
A Few Things You Should Know About the Weasel is a far-ranging and fearless collection, of great humour, intelligence and sympathy. Ranging through philosophy, art and history — both global and domestic — these poems skillfully chronicle the darkness that is our current age and condition, and the pinpricks of light thta may show us the way out.
