Have It | Audiolibro

Have It, a collection of subversive poems, is brought to life by the author John Cooper Clarke.

John Cooper Clarke may have an honorary doctorate and a poem on the English Literature GCSE syllabus, but don’t let that fool you: the ‘Poet Laureate of Punk’ is still a bona fide iconoclast. In Have It, a collection of scathing new poems, the Bard of Salford puts his pen to work across a host of painfully funny critiques of modern life.

Praise for John Cooper Clarke:

Nothing short of dazzling – Alex Turner, musician and frontman of the Arctic Monkeys

‘A rhymer to be reckoned with . . . with a panache contemporary poets should aspire to and respect’ – The Sunday Times

‘John Cooper Clarke uses words like Chuck Berry uses guitar riffs melody and anger, humour and disdain in equal measure. He’s the real deal, really funny and really caustic, the velvet voice of discontent’ – Kate Moss

‘John Cooper Clarke is one of Britain’s outstanding poets. His anarchic punk poetry has thrilled people for decades . . . long may his slender frame and spiky top produce words and deeds that keep us on our toes and alive to the wonders of the world’ – Sir Paul McCartney
