Action Replay

This ought to attract a very wide audience. Each poem or piece of 'memorable speech' tells a story or anecdote, sometimes a familiar one, which is generally very accessible and often amusing. A wide range of styles is presented with contributions from India, China, Japan, Poland and Czechoslovakia. In my experience these are just the sorts of writing to switch kids on to the possibilities of poetry.
