The Luckiest Guy Alive

The Luckiest Guy Alive is the first new book of poetry from Dr John Cooper Clarke for several decades -- and a brilliant, hilarious collection from one of our most beloved and influential writers and performers. From 'Attack of the 50ft Woman' to a hymn to the seductive properties of the pie -- by way of hand-grenade haikus, machine-gun ballads and a meditation on the loss of Bono's leather pants -- this book collects stunning set pieces, tried-and-tested audience favourites and brand new poems to show Cooper Clarke still effortlessly at the top of his game--back cover.
