Simon Sylvester’s “140 Characters’ is a vibrant and exciting collection of Twitter poetry from a debut author. Strictly adhering to the 140 characters or less rule applied on Twitter, Sylvester takes the reader to worlds that are both funny and sad, touching and terrifying. Witness the worlds of prom queens and bin men, of Sherlock Holmes and Noddy, of Glasgow and Colditz, of extinct bees and Catherine wheels. Go read it. Then go tweet about it.
This ebook features Richard Todd’s illustrations in greyscale and poetry that will take you to another world…and then another…and then another…
