Flapjack Press presents NAIL ON THE HEAD by PAUL COOKSON
Book Launch: Wednesday 24th November
6.30pm at Manchester Central Library, St Peter’s Square M2 5PD
Author reading, Q&A and book signing - free entry

“A fresh collection of Cookson’s verse. If it’s laughter you’re after you could do worse.” - Dr John Cooper Clarke

Humorous, compassionate, and with a principled, political edge (and more than a passing interest in the European Football Championships, as you’d expect from the National Football Museum’s poet-in-residence), this is Paul’s fourth and concluding documentation of a nation’s resolve and wellbeing.
Illustrated by Chris Riddell OBE (Children’s Laureate / Observer), Korky Paul (Winnie the Witch / Sir Scallywag) & Martin Chatterton (Winter of the White Bear / Bluenoses).

“In these strange times, every day should have a Paul Cookson moment – keep him by your bedside for emergencies.” - Simon Mayo
“These trying times need poets to help us find a compass.” - Michael Rosen
