Not Love Perhaps

This selection of just over sixty poems made by his friend and literary executor, Hubert Nicholson, contains the best of A. S. J. Tessimond. And the best of A. S. J. Tessimond is good. Read, for example, 'The man in the bowler hat', 'Black Monday Lovesong', 'Song in a saloon bar' 'Cats 11' and, perhaps, best of all, 'Not love perhaps' itself.

In their own way they are perfect.

Poet Brian Patten writes:

'Faber Finds are to be congratulated. It’s brilliant to find them bringing A. S. J. Tessimond’s collection Not Love Perhaps to light once more. A well-deserved resurrection of a fascinating poet.'
