Slug

'An intoxicating mixture of poetry and prose, Slug is a taboo-busting delight' - SCOTSMAN * 'One of the best poets we have' - MATT HAIG * 'She writes with honesty, conviction, humour and love' - KAE TEMPEST * 'Hollie always articulates exactly how I feel' - CHARLY COX

The new collection of poetry and prose from the Ted Hughes Award-winning author of Nobody Told Me.

From Finnish saunas and soppy otters to grief, grandparents and Kellogg's anti-masturbation pants, Slug is a book which holds a mirror lovingly up to the world, past and present, through Hollie's driving, funny, hopeful poetry and prose. Slug is about the human condition: of birth and death and how we manage the possibilities in between.

'The inimitable words of poet/goddess Hollie McNish once again hold up honest, damn funny and refreshing takes on the everydayness of our lives . . . Never have we needed her more' - STYLIST
