At Wild Court, edited by Robert Selby, my essay ‘A Shilling Book from Praed Street’ about the poet and editor Daniel George, and his forgotten but fascinating journal poem, To-morrow will be Different (1932).
This simply and frankly recounts a day in his life, including a country walk, going to the pub, flashbacks to the trenches, and a cottage tea with friends. Clemence Dane described it as ‘loquacious, quotatious, funny, tragic, coarse’.
