Humorous, serious and sometimes outrageous, Tôpher Mills’ poetry covers swimming, love, work, dialects, sex, politics, death and everything inbetween. From the incidental ordinary to the waywardly imaginative, Sex on Toast gathers Mills’ best-known work together with a host of new and uncollected material. From the earliest poems here, written in his teens, to those written in sardonic middle-age, he sings of his life and times as the essential Cardiff bard.
"Part of the power of the poems in this book is their great authenticity and honesty ... a significant body of emotive, powerful, funny, memorable, singing work." - Jonathan Edwards
