‘A CLEVER AND FASCINATING ANGLE ON THE BEATLES’

‘The premise that links these fiery, inspired and frankly shocking poets with The Beatles is beautifully argued …

Not least the spot-on caricature of William Wordsworth as Elvis Presley: in his younger days a hero and a rebel,

but later to become a stodgy, forelock-tugging conservative. Absolutely fascinating.’ - Boff Whalley, RnR magazine March/April 2025

 

‘MORE THAN A WORDSWORTH OF PRAISE FOR THIS NEW BOOK’

‘This wonderful book … is extremely informative and entertaining. 

You will be amazed at many of Webster’s anecdotes … Many of the

parallels he draws are quite frankly, astounding. I learned a lot  …

not only about the Beatles as a cultural phenomenon, but about the significant

contributions of the Romantics to English literature’. - John ‘Buzz’ Bezzini, beatlesbookstore.com

 

‘If only I had read it in 1974 I am sure I would have got a first

rather than a measly upper 2^nd…’. Oxford-based artist John Hounam.

 

A fascinating must-read for all those with a

passion for music, poetry and cultural rebels!
