Description
Cheryl Follon is a feisty new Scottish writer who presents a wild carnival of bawdy tale-telling, songs and boisterous monologues – all in a rowdy spirit of earthy celebration. The poems of All Your Talk – her first collection – are lucid and lusty, direct and daring, spiced with down-to-earth humour and a lively, often wicked wit. Rooted in ballad and storytelling traditions, she describes her poetry as ‘like boiling an old turnip and straining off a contemporary soup’.
