I had been going to reply “not done because they are too menny” but realised that this would be both lazy and a tad arrogant. Then Ed, with his customary generosity, did the basic gruntwork from his own shelf, so I’ve put them in date order and added “Real Newport”. This list dates from my first poetry collection and is preceded by a series of memoirs, based on a regular newspaper column, that are now long out of print. I have but a few copies of the last of these and the arrival of those “remaindered” books gave rise to a poem that appeared in "Between Dryden and Duffy". Thus ars longa, albeit vita brevis.
Over to Tony for cutting and pasting, for which relief, much thanks.
