John Fuller has achieved a melding of form and content as profound and…as original as any in <i>The Dice Cup</i>, with a poise and beauty that prose…cannot conjure

- William Wootten, The Times Literary Supplement

<b>One of England's greatest poets</b>

Daily Telegraph

‘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. But here too lie shadows: in departures and deteriorations, in a life balanced delicately between the known and the unknown. Taken together, The Dice Cup unfolds like a Chinese box of observations; wit, humour, pathos and playfulness entwine to thrilling and thought-provoking effect. It is a late, great work from one of our finest poets.
