Margins, edges and coastlines abound in John Mc Cullough’s tender, humorous explorations of contemporary life and love.
Encompassing everything from lichen to lava lamps, and from the etymology of words to Brighton’s gay scene, & Spacecraft is a humane and spellbinding collection from the winner of the 2012 Polari First Book Prize. Spacecraft & navigates the white space of the page and the distance between people.
