Synopsis

Diversifications includes a long poem by the author, 'The Long Habit of Living', together with his loose reworking of Mayakovsky's classic long poem 'Cloud in Pants', and some loose translations of Brecht, plus a number of poems "in the manner of Brecht". Each of the book's three sections offer the reader another aspect of Augustus Young, whether the voice be his own, or a kind of ventriloquy.
