 You're only gradually aware of verse that rhymes: hers is a sophisticated art. And there's no whimsy: her eye is accurate, her tongue has a sharp edge.” The Scotsman

 "Forget the corny comedian: Pam Ayres is a proper poet, whose wistful, funny, and perceptive verse captures both the joy and unfairness of life.”  Sunday Times
