Join bestselling poet, Costa Prize-shortlisted novelist, and Twitter’s unofficial ‘poet laureate’, Brian Bilston, to celebrate the paperback publication of Alexa, what is there to know about love?

For this virtual event, Brian will be sharing his wonderful collection of poems about love in all its forms, covering everything from romantic love to familial love, to long-distance love, and love online. In conversation, Brian will explore poems about the true passions for many booklovers, reading and literature, and the odd one about the subject causing many of us heartbreak: politics. With titles such as ‘Hold My Hand While We Jump Off This Cliff’ and ‘Remembrance of Things Pasta’, there’s something to delight even the most jaded and cynical.

Warm, witty, wry, daft, sweet and deftly clever, don’t miss the opportunity to spend an evening with the Banksy of poetry.

'If you like a) laughing or b) words which rhyme with each other, you will love Brian Bilston' Richard Osman
