From the bulldog to the basenji, from the beagle to the basset, P.D. Murray's new collection of doggerel is sure to delight dog lovers of all ages. With both hilarious and heart-warming poems for breeds as exotic as the xoloitzcuintli, and as commonplace as the mongrel, Dachshunds and Doggerel is bound to have you sitting up and begging for more.
Cat and Caboodle is yet another collection of nonsense and whimsy from the zany pen of P.D. Murray. With poetry on such important subjects as electric eels, nose hair, gunslingers who wear rabbits on their heads, a battle between a cockatoo and a caribou, and a marriage between a python and a boa, young lovers of words are sure to find something that tickles either their fancy or their funny bone.
The Insider's Guide to Martha's Vineyard is an admittedly spotty, clearly biased, erratically researched and often ill-conceived manual on how to be a true Islander from the wry pen of P. D. Murray. With such important advice as how to avoid the perils of deer ticks and poets, why bumper stickers are so critical to Island life, and where to find opalescent shad lures or a pirate eye patch, this guide is bound to pay for itself in seconds flat. Barring that, it may turn out to be mildy entertaining.
From Chaucer to Billy Collins and from basset hounds to brindle bull terriers, Doggerel presents a robust brood of the most charming verse tributes ever offered to our beloved canine companions. The rich and assorted cadences of some of the most distinguished poets across the centuries ring out from these pages–from Spenser, Shakespeare, and Pope to Merrill, Merwin, and Muldoon–celebrating pooches of every pedigree and persuasion. Here is Margaret Cavendish’s barking chorus of beagles on the hunt; Elizabeth Bishop’s “Pink Dog” alongside Robyn Selman’s “My Dog is Named for Elizabeth Bishop”; Charles Baxter’s villanelle “Dog Kibble,” whose dog-narrator decides that “Life isn’t meaningless because there’s food”; and the desultory charms of Jane Kenyon’s unleashed dog, nuzzling about on a drizzly afternoon. From lazy dogs curled up by the fireplace to audacious hounds howling at the moon, from mutts to purebreds, puppies to old dogs, Doggerel is an irresistible gathering of fast and faithful friends.
