Publisher's Summary

Listen to the audiobook for an exclusive interview with Hollie and her good friend, radio presenter Gemma Cairney
Hollie has also included a special poetry reading in memory of her grandmother, and an exclusive preview of poems from her next book

'One of the best poets we have' MATT HAIG

'She writes with honesty, conviction, humour and love' KAE TEMPEST

'Hollie always articulates exactly how I feel' CHARLY COX

The new collection of poetry and prose from the Ted Hughes Award-winning author of Nobody Told Me

From Finnish saunas and soppy otters to grief, grandparents and Kellogg's anti-masturbation pants, Slug is a book which holds a mirror lovingly up to the world, past and present, through Hollie's driving, funny, hopeful poetry and prose. Slug is about the human condition: of birth and death and how we manage the possibilities in between.

'The inimitable words of poet/goddess Hollie McNish once again hold up honest, damn funny and refreshing takes on the everydayness of our lives . . . Never have we needed her more' STYLIST
©2021 Hollie McNish (P)2021 Hachette Audio UK

LOVE ❤️

I absolutely Love Hollie McNish's style, flow, words, openness. This is the first book I've ever listened too, it felt so wrong, a book should be held in your hands and, read. Until it felt so right!! Hollie's voice, accent and delivery, amazing. I'm gushing, but I truly do Love this book. I didn't want to wait for a hardcopy, so I ordered it from the UK. I know, best money spent all year!!
Thank You Hollie, all tha way from Canada!
