"And Guess who He was With?"
Popular, accessible love poems from the author of A Red Dress and What Am I Doing Here? In the style of Wendy Cope, but better. Highly readable, utterly approachable, easy to relate to, this is a book for those who love poetry - and for those who normally don't. In And Guess Who He Was With? Liz Cowley charts the pleasures, conflicts, and frustrations of women's lives with wry amusement, sharp observation and often a wicked sting in the tail.
A Red Dress and Other Poems
"In this unique collection of poems, a woman's voice speaks straight from the page about life-changing moments: love found or lost, marriage and divorce, children and career conflicts, disappointments and joys." "With bittersweet humour, often with a wicked sting in the tail, Liz Cowley addresses contentious issues - among them plastic surgery, the influence of magazines and sex columns, obesity, and the insidious use of phones and texts."--BOOK JACKET.
What Am I Doing Here?

Dealing with the frustrations and disappointments along with the joys and pleasures of life, Liz is delighted when readers say to her "I don't normally like poetry, but I really love this."

Why Do the People Hate Me So?
The era over which Stanley Baldwin presided became known as the ‘Baldwin Age’. Yet, despite a dozen or so biographies and several portraits in the memoirs of the great and the good, he remains little remembered today. Nonetheless the country owed much to him. The Great War of 1914-1918 had been the greatest conflict the world had known and that world had changed, robbed of its order, structure and beliefs; dictators came soon enough to replace the toppled monarchs. This biography details the many challenges Baldwin faced during his life.
