As a BBC Radio 2 presenter and award winning author, Mike Harding has a great deal to say for himself. In this new collection of poems, which range from covering drunks in Glasgow to mermaidens to dystopian visions of London, Harding provides a unique perspective on modern life.

Mike Harding is experienced and popular in many branches of the arts, and is commonly recognised as the ‘John Peel’ of folk music. This fascination and expertise in music and folk lore transfer seamlessly into the poetry captured here, with additional elements of social consciousness and pop culture thrown in which result in a mixture that only Mike Harding could have created.
