This is a book for people who like to gorge on language; a meal too big for people who hate to throw away their food. It is about life’s extremes – those times when you do things to excess, and those when you avoid doing anything at all. Sometimes political, sometimes sexual and always hungry, this visceral, arresting debut pamphlet marks the arrival of an unforgettable new 'mouth' in UK poetry.
