«You can't go wrong with a book about food and A.F. Harrold has assembled a tasty menu for this delicious anthology.»
Alison Kelly, Reading Zone
«The book features some great contributions from well-established modern poets alongside poems by newer writers and those by the likes of Lewis Carroll and other old favourites. Particularly welcome is the fact that the poems feature food (and poets) from places other than Britain. This makes the book that bit more tasty.»
