Any volume of Adrian's poetry is worth reading from cover to cover, but I defy any decent human being to read "We bomb tonight" and not hold back at tear, nor vow never to vote for any politician be they New Labour, Tory, Republican or Democrat.

Thank you Adrian for doing for Lebanon, Afghanistan, Palestine and Iraq what you once did for Vietnam. Let us hope your poems flood Israel with Peace and no one has to step into your shoes for Iran. I grew up in the '60s when some of us thought that there was hope in poetry and the people who wrote and read it - sadly we were mistaken, but you tried for Peace throughout your life. ( )
