Publisher Description

A wildly original poetry collection written and read by one of the UK's most exciting young comics. A poet who favours dark suits, lager and long hot baths, he works on BBC Four in Charlie Brooker's Newswipe and on Radio 4, doing his late night poetry show.

In 2009 he won the Edinburgh Comedy Award for his poetical recital The Slutcracker and has filmed some of his verse in black and white to overwhelming critical approval. Billed by Time Out as He's a genius plain and simple Tim's incomplete and unabridged reading of his book is hilarious and inventive, playful and punchy, and light and dark by turn.

Contains some strong language and content.

"This was simply fun -- Loosely classified as poetry, it is more humorous anecdotes, with the footnotes often containing more of the humor than the poems. "Kafkaesque" was superb. Also, good for a colonist to get a feel for humor over the pond."

    " I like how every poem finishes on a non-crescendo. It tickled me muchly. Though, frankly, the tininess of the plethora of footnotes pissed me right off. "

    " Charlatan. I really did try and give this a go, based on once finding Tim Key funny on Charlie Brooker and impulse purchasing this on the Kindle, but as comedy it's far too arch and not very funny, and as poetry it's godawful. "
