Hollie McNish: Nobody Told Me - NNF16

Warning: some explicit language Acclaimed UK poet and YouTube sensation Hollie McNish returns to Norwich following her sell-out performance last year. Nobody Told Me is an honest and humorous reflection on Hollie’s journey before, during and after pregnancy. Expect hard-hitting and inspiring poems on sex, pregnancy, gender, commercialisation and parenthood. Her ability to add up the minutiae of everyday experience in to something close to a social movement gives her poetry its unique power, the velvet glove of her humour masking the iron fist of a call for change. Q&A with Lora Stimson follows. Part of the City of Literature programme at Norfolk & Norwich Festival 2016.
