Ruth Butler, an amateur at everything, has enjoyed being around the West country for over half a century, and has been trying to make sense of human life. There is the silly and the serious here, but frequently the serious needs a touch of fun, or a poke in the eye. The poems may tell stories, true or not, often they are twisted yarns, and the characters speak for themselves.
Somewhere in these pages you will meet the elephant from Porlock, the dinosaurs roaming around Sidmouth, a rat leaving the sinking country and getting back on a ship, and you will also get advice on peasant shooting, and get chased by a robot vacuum cleaner.
