Thatcher's Folly by George Jowett Louis De Paor PBS Recommended Translation - SpringFirst inspired when writing his contribution in the long poem A Modern Don Juan: Cantos For These Times by Divers Hands (Five Leaves Publications, 2014), which imagines the picaresque adventures of a modern DJ as Don Juan, George Jowett wrote this second canto. This is a wonderfully satirical and often scabrous account of an imagined liaison between Margaret Thatcher and the DJ, culminating in the Brighton Tory Party Conference bombing.
