| Description: | Select Guide Rating An affectionate and unabashed celebration of Englishness from one of the nation's most popular poets. For more than half a century, Betjeman''s writings have awakened readers to the intimacy of English places - from the smell of gaslight in suburban churches, to the hissing of backwash on a shingle beach. Betjeman is England''s greatest topologist: whether he''s talking about a townhall or a teashop, he gets to the nub of what makes unexpected places unique. This new collection of his writings, arranged geographically, offers an essential gazetteer to the physical landmarks of Betjeman Country. |
