{"product_id":"9781911113133","title":"Talking Crow","description":"\u003cp\u003eJim Clarkson is a lucky git.\u003cbr\u003e He has written poetry since he was 17 and mostly he has done this in pockets\u003cbr\u003e of time in-between doing other stuff.\u003cbr\u003e His is a poetry which has sprouted like a weed growing between cracks in the\u003cbr\u003e pavement; a poetry which has spread like mushrooms in a cellar. Often he\u003cbr\u003e has referred to it as bandit poetry, because that’s how it’s been written - in\u003cbr\u003e stolen moments at 5 in the morning, or in car parks, or at the top of the stairs\u003cbr\u003e waiting for children to go to sleep.\u003cbr\u003e In May 2015 he got through to the Poetry Slam final with his poem, Things to\u003cbr\u003e Come. There, wearing a rather smart suit, he was fortunate enough to win.\u003cbr\u003e He celebrated eating crisps with his daughter listening to very loud music on\u003cbr\u003e the journey home.\u003cbr\u003e The poems in this collection are a bit miserable. But they are also a bit funny.\u003cbr\u003e If you can, please read them at 5 in the morning, or in car parks, or at the top\u003cbr\u003e of the stairs waiting for children to go to sleep.\u003cbr\u003e Old Skull Face, a family friend.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spiderwize","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47181720125680,"sku":"9781911113133","price":10.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781911113133_p0.jpg?v=1763628988","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781911113133","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
