From the Senedd to the Roofs pulls together another year of his imaginative and irreverent journalism.These are missives of hope, bewilderment, anger and grief. Horses run amok down Picadilly, First Ministers come and go, and royalty continues to perplex in this raucous almanac of world events as viewed from Wales. Whether writing about the loss of a client in his work with the homeless, the loss of one his favourite songwriters Shane MacGowan, or the loss of lives through poor political decisions, Wildsmith brings sharp observation, empathy and dark humour to bear in a quest to make sense of it all.
