The Sorry History of Fast Food

Angry and satirical, yet tender, Paul Sutton's poetic tour through fast food outlets tells us much about where we, and our society are now.



"
The Sorry History of Fast Food moved me deeply.
It's an elegy to all that we lost through modernity, a
quiet mapping of the disorientation and atomisation
that we feel. The poetry itself is a kind of yearning
for unity. There's something disturbing about the
way Sutton puts words together - like some great
broken structure lies behind it all. Intimacy perhaps.
