      Richard Holloway is one of our most beloved public thinkers. Throughout his life he has turned to poets and writers to help answer the big questions, and for solace and guidance in the face of life''s challenges. Now he shares those poems and words which have been his own guide, offered in the hope they will help us too.

      This is a book to turn to for inspiration, guidance and comfort. It offers lessons from those who, in Richard''s words, ''know best how to listen and teach us to listen'', all united by ''the sensual appeal of words, the pain and pleasure they impart''. It is a book to treasure.
