I Found This Shirt: Poems and Prose from the Centre

I Found This Shirt is a sack of poems and prose pieces that continue Ian McMillan's obsessive exploration of self, place, history and comedy. The centre where Ian McMillan finds his shirt is a wide area; at the very centre of that centre is his native Barnsley, its football team of which he is laureate, and its environs, an inexhaustible field of human research and the source of his timbre. McMillan's unstinting work in schools, for radio and television, qualifies him uniquely as a commentator on landscapes and lives which survive unobserved and overlooked.
