Escape Room

"Through the use of deadpan humour, lightning wit and a commitment to poking fun at pomposity, Bryony Littlefair's poems show us what the world is really like. Her similes are compellingly outrageous and her metaphors are gloriously bizarre these poems let us see life and our lives as the ridiculous strange beautiful creatures they are." Kim Moore "Fresh, natural and surprising twists and turns, sudden illuminations that feel like truth telling" Pascal Petit Escape Room is the startling and long-awaited debut collection from Bryony Littlefair, following the success of her award-winning pamphlet Giraffe. Littlefair combines clear-eyed observation with wry, surreal humour. Where the mundanities of everyday life, work, therapy, graduation and lapsed Christianity are transformed into the comedic and absurd, with warmth, humanity and a deadpan delivery.
