The Listener Crossword has appeared in The Times every Saturday since March 1991, having previously appeared in the eponymous magazine. The crossword is recognized as being one of the most fiendish around, requiring solvers to push beyond the boundaries of conventional solving skills. Each of the 60 examples chosen for inclusion in this volume has an added twist, be it a literary connection, deliberately misspelt definitions or a mathematical conundrum, which, through the complete solving of the crossword, lead to the actual solution.

A collection of crossword puzzles with solutions, all originally published in the New Zealand Listener in 1990-1991. They were compiled by the Listener's resident compiler over many years, RWH (Ruth Hendry).

This new book presents 60 of the best The Listener crosswords, the famously challenging cryptic crosswords from The Times that have attracted a passionate following.
