Slim Volume by Paul Cookson
Back at the start of the coronavirus pandemic, acclaimed poet Paul Cookson set out to write a poem a day to share across social media - and is still going strong. More than 2000 consecutive poems later, Slim Volume collates some of his shorter daily poems written during lockdown with many of his more recent compositions, published in print for the first time.Paul Cookson was brought up near Preston, Lancs, and now lives in Retford, Notts, where he is the official Town Crier. He has worked as a poet for more than three decades, performing in schools, libraries, and at literature festivals across the world. He is a National Reading Hero award winner, a National Poetry Day Ambassador, and poet in residence for the National Football Museum and Everton in the Community – whilst the band Slade have proclaimed him their very own Poet Laureate.
