...........And the winner for this year's best cover goes to Bryanna. From the title and description I was expecting some filthy, violent and scary poetry, the collection is not as shallow as that. It starts off a bit sensible, then gets angry and quite shouty, then things start to get a bit rude and then near the end things take a serious turn. The ordering of the poems and the layout has been perfectly done.
I'm quite proud of myself because I have read stuff by 4 of the poets, quite an achievement for me. Amber Decker is new to me and her poem was the best, the perfect poem for HST, She sounds like she could be quite scary in real life. Certificates by Chris Butler had me laughing out loud, only 7 lines long but genius. The mighty Johnny Scarlotti does a little documentary for us about the Blue Whale.
Has anybody seen the Nationwide adverts on TV? Some person sat in a café lecturing about humans and stuff? I quite like them, it would be awesome if John Grochalski was to read his poem, the longest in the book, on one of those adverts.
A fine collection here and some new names for me to check out...it's only downfall was that it just isn't long enough, over way too soon.
