Literary Lockdown 2020
£8.50 including UK postage [wp_paypal button=”buynow” name=”Literary Lockdown” amount=”8.50″]
As the early stages of the pandemic raged around the world, these 31 poems capture life in a locked-down UK in April and May 2020. Only time will tell whether the anger and frustrations were misplaced, and when or if the humour and beauty will return, so for now, this can be treated as a snapshot – a moment in time – and judgements can be left for another day.

Lambast
£8.50 including UK postage [wp_paypal button=”buynow” name=”Lambast” amount=”8.50″]
What started as an attempt to be funny turned out to be anything but – in fact it turned into a record of a very challenging time with a mix of personal issues and external events leading to a compulsion to ‘get it out’. So it’s out, and you’ll soon be holding it, if you’ll excuse the phrase. The poems contained within are a mix of personal and political, humour and anger, frustration and relief and chart an individual and nation in a state of dramatic decline. The individual is doing much better now – the nation probably needs more drastic help.
