Teachers used to tell me they were 'scared' of poetry a lot. I hardly ever hear that anymore, I tend to get 'I gave it a go and my class are loving it, even the boys!' nowadays. Which is wonderful to hear! nitter.cf/Gozzer66/status/100827โ€ฆ

I suspect this will make it onto my list of favourite books of 2017. Lyrical, witty, SO beautiful, and just a tiny bit subversive. Superb.
