SUMMARY:An Afternoon with Brian Bilston - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:The Poetry Bookshop is delighted to be welcoming bestselling poet Brian Bilston to The Globe at Hay to celebrate the release of his new book Day Like These – a brilliant new way to mark and celebrate every single day of the year.\n \nThis event is now sold out but you can still get your hands on a signed copy of the book by Pre-ordering  your own copy here \nDays Like These contains a poem for every day of the year\, each one inspired by an event associated with that day; from Open an Umbrella Indoors Day to the day on which New York banned public flirting; from the launch of the Rubik’s Cube to the first appearance of the phrase\, ‘the best thing since sliced bread’. \nPerfect for reading aloud and sharing with friends\, Days Like These: An alternative guide to the year in 366 poems will take the blues out of Monday\, flatten the Wednesday hump\, and amplify that Friday feeling. A brilliant way to enliven every day of the year. \nBrian Bilston has been described as the Banksy of poetry and Twitter’s unofficial Poet Laureate; with over 200\,000 followers on social media\, Brian has become truly beloved by the online community. His first collection of poetry\, You Took the Last Bus Home\, was published by Unbound. Diary of a Somebody (Picador) was shortlisted for the Costa First Novel Award and the McKitterick Prize. Alexa\, What Is There To Know About Love?\, his last collection\, was described by one reviewer as ‘the funniest collection of humorous verse I have seen in a long time’. Fifty Ways to Score a Goal\, a collection of poems about football for children\, was published last year.  \nBrian Bilston lives in Oxford but ssssh\, don’t tell anyone. \nDoors: 14.30\, event starts: 15.00 \nTickets are £5.00 (event only) or £20.00 (event plus a copy of the book) \nDAYS LIKE THESE will also be available to purchase at the event and Brian will be signing copies after the talk.
