Hollie McNish - Lobster: The Paperback Tour
'Funny, so smart and refreshingly honest' Sarah Millican
Hollie McNish is a poet whose live readings are not to be missed. After a run of sold out shows up and down the UK, she is back with the paperback tour of Lobster and other things I'm learning to love. A Sunday Times bestselling book, expect strong language and adult content, gift-wrapped in gorgeously crafted poetry as she reads from this collection plus a selection of firm favourites from Slug and Nobody Told Me.
'Makes me cry and howl with laughter' Paapa Essiedu
Adult content warning 14+
Book signing after the gig & support act to be announced.
About the Author
Hollie McNish is a poet and author based between Glasgow and Cambridge. She was the first poet to record at Abbey Road Studios, London and won the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry for her poetic parenting memoir – Nobody Told Me - of which The Scotsman stated, ‘The World Needs this Book’. She has published four further collections of poetry – Papers, Cherry Pie, Plum and Slug, which was a Sunday Times bestseller and translated into French under the title Je souhaite seulement que tu fasses quelque chose de toi. Her new book is Lobster, and other things I'm learning to love. She loves writing.
