Laurie Bolger’s debut collection Box Rooms shows that poetry can be your friend. With extraordinary warmth, the poems build into a conversation of friendship, communities, vegetables, pubs, tea, love and the meanings we find in these and in each other. This is a joyful exploration of self and community, of the ordinary and the extraordinary, and introduces Laurie Bolger as an unmistakable, unpretentious voice of British poetry.
