'In the dice cup, then, life becomes not a design but a wager; not an adventure but a game...' Brimming with brio and brilliance, John Fuller's latest collection comprises exquisite philosophical arguments, dream visions, aphorisms, precise portraits, colourful fables and tableaux of life.

It is a late, great work from one of our finest poets.
