JARVIS SHOWS OFF HIS POETRY

There are debuts, and there are debuts, and Jarvis Cocker's poetry debut falls into the heavily itallicised sort of debut. Trashed On Cider is being stuck on the outer wall of The Forge, the new student halls of residence being built in Sheffield.

It's part of a bid by the Sheffield Off The Page literary festival to broaden its appeal to young people. Or, rather, younger people. Or young-ish people.

Props to Sheffield.

Lord knows I'd have the Jarv up against a wall any day of the week.
