Happiness FM Reviews

'Happiness FM' will take you on an exhilarating ride, travelling at breakneck speed from the everyday to the transcendental and back again. But as you read between the layers of laughs, jaunty rhythms and irresistible rhymes, you'll discover an understated pathos and a highly politicised mind at work. These poems will sing in your mind long after you've closed the pages of this determined, honest and uplifting collection.' - Jacqueline Saphra; 'Mary Dickins debut collection Happiness FM hugs you like a warm cup of cocoa. Full of wit and charm her poetry will make you chuckle and joyfully reflect on how beautifully odd this world can be.' - Peter Hayhoe (Muddy Feet Poetry)
