Paperback. Condition: Very Good. What I Learned From Johnny Bevan is a politically charged modern epic by celebrated poet Luke Wright. Written in electrifying verse, this is a story of friendship, class ceilings and the battle for the soul of the Left. At university the mercurial Johnny Bevan saves Nick, smashing his comfortable middle class bubble and firing him up about politics, music and books. Twenty years later, as their youthful dreams disintegrate alongside the social justice they hoped for, can Nick, now a jaded music journalist, save Johnny from himself? Winner of a prestigious Fringe First Award, What I Learned from Johnny strikes at the heart of a divided Britain with wit, compassion and laser precision.

Paperback. Condition: New. Click the Extracts tab above to read three poems from Mondeo Man: 'Thaxted', 'A Hornchurch Commuter' and 'Houses that Used to Be Boozers'."One of the funniest and most brilliant poets of his generation" - Johann Hari, The Independent"The best young performance poet around" - The ObserverExplosive political satire and acerbic wit leap from stage to page in this hotly anticipated debut collection from Luke Wright. Mondeo Man celebrates and laments a country of disappearing pubs, celebrity anti-heroes and motorway service stations, perfectly capturing the English idiom at the turn of the twenty-first century. Yummy mummies and debauched Tories mingle with drunk Essex commuters and leering tabloid paps; a small town chip-shop becomes the site of a heart-wrenching story of failed marriage; and a televised manhunt enthralls an entire nation. Fast-paced and inventive, this is poetry at its most approachable, satirical, fun, and archetypally English."Whatever it is that Luke Wright has been ingesting, artists of all genres need to get it bottled right now."The List"Visceral, poignant and riotously funny." The Scotsman"Performance poetry's key revivalist." MetroLuke Wright was born in Hackney in 1982. His poetry stage shows have toured the UK, Europe, Australia and China, including sold-out runs in London and Edinburgh. His latest UK tour is Your New Favourite Poet (2012-13). He is a resident poet on BBC Radio 4's Saturday Live. His first book, Who Writes This Crap?, co-written with Joel Stickley, was published by Penguin in 2008 ("An inspired piece of parody", The Guardian), and the pair's short film Crash! Bang! Wallow! won an award at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival. His 2009 verse documentary for Channel 4, The Seven Ages of Love, was nominated for a Grierson Award. He lives in Suffolk, where he hosts Latitude Festival's Poetry Arena, Europe's largest single poetry event.

Paperback. Condition: New. 'My poor old heart, I've left its drawbridge down' Divorced, and perhaps a little bruised, Luke Wright journeys off the sunken roads of southern England and into himself, pursued by murderous swans, empty car seats, and his father's skeleton clocks. Both brazen and elegiac, these poems pull on the 'tidy hem' of responsible existence, unravelling the banal frustrations of online outrage and ageing friends, and grasping at something 'beyond our squeaky comprehension'. Wright files through the shackles of cynicism to ask how can we let go without giving up. 'Luke Wright is one of the greats. A poetic pugilist. Beguiling, hypnotic and master of the emotional sucker-punch. The Feel-Good Movie of the Year is his best yet.' - Carl Barât.
