Book Description:

John Cassidy's poem 'Walking on Frogs' could almost be a description of the way his poems work. As the critic Dick Davis has said, they have 'a wary ease' in which 'placid surfaces mask a buried violence or vitality'. Walking on Frogs is his third book of poems. His second, Night Cries (Bloodaxe Books, 1982), was a Poetry Book Society Recommendation.
