The debut collection from Brian Bilston, one of Britain’s best-loved poets.
You Took the Last Bus Home is the first collection of ingeniously hilarious and surprisingly touching poems from Brian Bilston, Twitter’s ‘Unofficial Poet Laureate’.
With endless wit, imaginative wordplay and underlying heartache, he offers profound insights into modern life, exploring themes as diverse as love, death, the inestimable value of a mobile phone charger, the unbearable torment of forgetting to put the rubbish out, and the improbable nuances of the English language.
Constantly experimenting with literary form, Bilston’s words have been known to float off the page, take the shape of the subjects they explore, and reflect our contemporary world in the form of Excel spreadsheets, Venn diagrams and Scrabble tiles.
This irresistibly charming collection of his best-loved poems will make you question the very essence of the human condition in the twenty-first century.
