Like his, Flowers form the rubble (1990), it is a collection of his essays that have appeared under the column "there's the rub". Like the first, it is satirical, lyrical, analytical, angry, witty, and gritty. Like the first, it talks of dunces, queens, beggars, gargoyles, hangmen, and government officials, who are often one and the same. Like the first, it gives bane to the booned, and boon to the baned. --Front cover of the book ER -
