something about a title

I do like collections with quirky titles . For example I 've just read about a pamphlet called Mr Luczinski makes a move by Peter Daniels. I think it's the name that I am attracted to it conjures up a sense of character and the phrase 'makes a move 'is intriguing suggesting something a bit shady.

The same applies to the titles of poems , if I'm trawling through anthologies or indeed the Internet (my second home)  when there is so much good poetry to read..it's the strange or blackly humerous title that makes me stop.

Selima Hill is the mistress of the bizarre title both for her poems and collections . Her most recent pamphlet ' How to wear animal prints' caught my interest immediately and the collection does not disappoint.
