Literary phenomenon John Cooper Clarke is a British cult hero. Known as the ?Godfather of Punk Poetry? and the original people’s poet, John’s cultural influence spans literature, music and fashion. From creating some of the most iconic poetry of the modern era, including the world's most popular wedding poem ?I Wanna Be Yours? (recently celebrating over a billion streams in its incarnation as a hit record by the Arctic Monkeys) to sharing his life story through his 120k selling memoir of the same name and the recent release of his new best-selling poetry collection "WHAT" which is full of John’s much-loved sardonic wit and hilarious ponderings on modern life.
