I Found This Shirt: Poems and Prose from the Centre

By Ian McMillan

I Found This Shirt is a sack of poems and prose pieces that continue Ian McMillan's obsessive exploration of self, place, history and comedy: from columns for BBC Radio 4, to a poetic journal of a Mexican visit; from poems written especially for Arts Management Weekly to poems rejected by editors as too Bizarre for children.
The centre where Ian McMillan finds his shirt is a wide area, but at the very centre of that centre is his native Barnsley and environs, the inexhaustible field of his human researches and the source of his voice's timbre. McMillan's unstinting work in schools, his radio and television programmes make him a uniquely qualified commentator on landscapes and lives which survive unobserved and overlooked.
