An Evening With Brian Bilston

  • West End Lane Books 277 West End Lane London, England, NW6 1QS United Kingdom (map)

Brian Bilston will be returning to West End Lane Books on 13th October to celebrate the publication of his new poetry collection Days Like These : An alternative guide to the year in 366 poems. Tickets are £5 per person which is redeemable against the book on the night.

In this playful, innovative collection, Brian Bilston writes a poem to accompany every day of the year. Each poem is inspired by a significant - often curious - event associated with that day: from Open an Umbrella Indoors Day to the day on which New York banned public flirting; from the launch of the Rubik's Cube to the first appearance of the phrase, 'the best thing since sliced bread'. Perfect for reading aloud and sharing with friends, Days Like These: An alternative guide to the year in 366 poems will take the blues out of Monday, flatten the Wednesday hump, and amplify that Friday feeling.

A brilliant way to enliven every day of the year.

If you cannot make the event you can pre order a signed and dedicated copy of Days Like These. Follow the link below to pre order your copy or buy your ticket.
