Synopsis

Sometimes, You Say the Strangest Things - and John Eaton listens, laughs, and then crafts them into poetry that hits home. Eaton presents one hundred poems that blend sharp wit, playful wordplay, and self-deprecating humour to explore life's quirks and contradictions. Whether he's taking aim at the absurdities of social media, unravelling mind games, or dissecting the buzzwords of modern life (Fake News or Health and Safety, anyone?), Eaton's work is a masterclass in clever observation. He pokes fun at authority, modern mores, and the daily grind with a light touch and a wicked grin, transforming the mundane into the magnificent and the ridiculous into the relatable. This is an ideal pick-me-up for adults, kids and particularly business folk.
