In today's Guardian there is a review of Christopher Reid's new book
"Nonsense" (Faber) by Aingeal Clare which among other things praises
"some enjoyable sideswipes at the absurdity and pompousness of
academia", quoting this example:
"Brannegan Wong
goes on too long.
Brannegan Wong
sings the same old song.
Brannegan Wong
with his luminous dong
and his numinous pong
comes on too strong."
THAT'LL SHOW THEM! /pr
