"a weird blend of something savage and a bit surreal with a hard, fine conscientious realism".
Ted Hughes, 1970
This first publication of a forgotten yet significant poet gives an insight into literary life in 1960s London.
Published under the Richard Hollis imprint.
Susan Alliston was born and educated in England. In 1960 she moved with her husband to Tunisia, returning to London in 1962. At first a secretary and later a reader for Faber & Faber and Penguin Books, she was friendly with a number of writers who met at the Lamb pub in Holborn. Among them was Ted Hughes. He encouraged her writing, and the journals cast light on aspects of his life and work. Susan Alliston died in 1969.
