This pamphlet from Galliard Press prints Alexander Hutchison's poem "Surprise, Surprise" - which won first prize in the SASV Diamond Jubilee Competition in 1985, when the judges were Norman MacCaig and Edwin Morgan. Charles Hynes provides lively black and white engraved illustrations. The poem focusses satirically on the invention of vegetarian haggis - a dish originaly conceived and concocted for the dinner to celebrate the founding of the Scottish Poetry Library - prepared on that occasion by John MacSween the Edinburgh butcher - who then went on to manufacture and distribute it commercally world-wide.
