Book: Late Night Knife Fights

Synopsis: The poems take you from The Bay of Pigs, to The Algarve, on the road with Cathy's twelve piece band and into her sweetly perverse mind. It is recommended that it be kept on a high shelf and away from the easily devastated.

Act: Meet Vincent, he smells like satsuma and his lovemaking can be contained inside a crusty old plastic bag.
