Information

Doggedly Onward is Pam’s career-defining collected works, between two covers the reason she became a much-loved national treasure and Britain’s best-selling poet with 7.5m books sold. “When I look over the poems in this book, I can trace the course of my life. The various stages are all here: the young woman juggling various boyfriends, the wife adrift amid the joy and terror of new motherhood and the astounded, adoring granny.” Both hilarious and profound, Pam’s unique insights into daily life spark both smiles and tears as audiences recognise themselves in her poems.
