Red Shelley

Shelley remains an inspiration to a world which seems as far removed from his ideals now as it was in his own time. Paul Foot was a tireless agitator for wider understanding of Shelley’s vision. In Red Shelley, written with passion, provocative and immensely stimulating, he leaves an enduring legacy.
JUDITH CHERNAIK, POEMS ON THE UNDERGROUND
‘Paul Foot saves Shelley from decades of schmaltz and pulls us back to the core of his thought: humanity is stifled and oppressed by our rulers and, as ‘ye are many—they are few’, these rulers can be overthrown.’
MICHAEL ROSEN, AUTHOR AND POET
