Love in a Celebrity Climate
Love in a Celebrity Climate is a furious little book of satirical, political and performance poetry that digs under the skin of celebrities, politicians and other scoundrels, published by Little Metropolis.
It examines, excoriates and laughs at the hollow myths and fantasies that have been helping the ‘live the dream’ generation swallow anything and everything that’s been thrown at them for the last decade or two and is laid out in three sections: Celebrity Climate, an Advertisement Break, and News.
In it, Adam Horovitz stares unblinking down both scraped barrels of the tabloid arsenal and takes a swipe at all-comers, be they David Hasselhof, terrorists of any stripe, celebrity cannibals, the England football squad, the Royal Family, Brexit, ATOS, UKIP or the advertising industry.
These are poems to be spoken aloud. If you have this book in your hands and are about to read anything from it to friends, family or even passing strangers, please throw out whatever you may have learned from anger managment courses and turn all your dials up to eleven first.
