After writing a rather heavy Ph. D on the lighter side of W H Auden’s poetry, George Myerson taught English at Bristol University and King’s London. He has lightened those and later times in his life with books on such things as Nostradamus’s football prophecies, the perplexities of the mobile and Johnson’s Brexit Dictionary. He is currently composing a trip around the zoo in riddles for kids and a series of philosophical fitness routines.
