{"product_id":"9781908058638","title":"Reckless Paper Birds by John McCullough","description":"Shortlisted for the Costa 2019 Poetry Award. . Winner of the 2020 Hawthornden Prize.   Surreal, joyful, political and queer, Reckless Paper Birds is a collection to treasure by Polari Prize-winning poet John McCullough.   These exuberant poems welcome you into a psychedelic, parallel world of 'vomit and blossom' where Kate Bush mingles with a weeping Lady Gaga, a 'fractal coast' full of see-through things: water, mirrors, glass pebbles.   With a magpie's eye for hidden charms, McCullough ranges across birdlife, Grindr and My Little Pony while also addressing social issues from homelessness to homophobia.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56313120129397,"sku":"9781908058638","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781908058638.jpg?v=1762825487","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781908058638","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
