The Owl and the Pussycat: And Other Poems

By Tom Mathews

Best known as one of Ireland's most popular cartoonists, Tom Mathews has for many years contributed poems to a number of small magazines and journals. The Owl and the Pussycat is his much anticipated debut collection and contains-as the title suggests-a variety of parodies, homages, versions and subversions, as well as poems which, with a light touch and steady gaze, look into the darker quarters of the human soul. "Tom Mathews has been an institution in Dublin for 30 years" -The Irish Times "The estimable Tom Mathews" -Fintan O'Toole "Is duine an-gh ar, an chliste " -Se n Mac R amoinn
