Poetry is a bit like the revolutionary movements George Bernard Shaw talked about in ‘Androcles and the Lion’. Poetry attracts all kinds. The poets in this anthology include teachers, lecturers, bankers, businessmen and business women, lawyers, judges, social workers, doctors, nurses, students, publishers, booksellers, mothers, fathers, nuns, journalists, the unemployed, and writers. The ages of the contributors range from 16 to 70+. Some of the writers have international reputations; others are being published for the first time. There are 17 new names to Friendly Street in this Reader.
