But the very best of George Green, for all his genius as a thinker and writer, is to hear him live. His delivery is impeccable. It's a great deal funnier from the stage than on the page. I could say why but I don't want to ruin it for anyone. Just hear him live!
And I don't think "Lord Byron's Foot" is even the funniest or darkest of the poems in the book. Buy the book! I did, and now I can't find it.
