New And Selected Potatoes

Hay Festival 2014, 

Drawing on recent spuddish collections I AM A POeTATO and Peace Love And Potatoes. Pieces new and older: meditations upon family, celery and happier daleks. A return to the Hay festivities, mandolin in hand with dippings into an animal alphabet and verses written whilst resident poet at Keats House, Hampstead. Light and lyrical. Deep and daft. Come and sing. Devised largely for adults but has proved tollerable for some 9-year-olds.
