Timmy the Tug will sail seas anew. A 40-page long poem written by poet laureate Ted Hughes for his former roommate Jim Downer, with whom he shared a house in the 1950’s, has resurfaced after Hughes’s wife Carol found it and returned it to the original recipient.

The tale tells the story of the strong tugboat that was abandoned by its captain for a cook and a cat and crates of rum. Thames and Hudson will publish the poem as a true replica of the actual work with Downer’s original artwork.
