About this ebook
In the early nineties, amidst a relentless soundtrack of melodic chaos and guitar-driven fury, Darren Hobson was writing raw verse on factory walls in the North West of England, drowning in alcohol, and trying to survive his own chaotic mind.
Decades, three countries, and a lifetime of bad decisions later, Hobson delivers Just Everlasting Ginger—a raw, darkly comic, and deeply personal poetry collection that serves as the monumental bookend to a legendary underground writing journey.
Moving between the rain-slicked streets of Lancashire, the isolated hills of Italy, and the sun-soaked roads of Turkey, these poems document what happens when the party ends, the hangovers clear, and you are left facing the noise inside your own head.
Inside this collection, you'll find:
