When an Oxford poet named Saturday Keith assumes control of the Pelican Pub, all he wants is the peace and freedom to craft his poems without being disturbed. To his dismay, however, the local watering hole soon becomes an attraction for various eccentric characters ranging from uncouth rogues to members of academia. Comprised of an entertaining series of vignettes that occur at the Pelican Pub in the fiction Downish, Poet’s Pub is a humorous collection of stories by award-winner Eric Linklater.
