Luke Wright’s Pub Grub

Luke Wright is back with a sticky-floored celebration of the ordinary, conjuring up a world of Tuesday lunchtimes and small town boozers in poems that burst with inventive language.

Wright is a poet and raconteur at the top of his game. Both brazen and elegiac, his poems pull on the tidy hem of responsible existence to unravel the frustrations of family, politics and masculinity in 21st century Britain. These are fun and filthy poems from someone who knows what they’re doing. If there were any justice, he’d be Poet Laureate – or King.

Forget your “best life” – come and live your worst. These are the kind of poems you can get drunk to, full of audacious rhymes, insane sonic trickery and big-hearted storytelling. Expect loads of laughs, a few more coins in the swear jar and a sore head in the morning.
