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.
(Ewan Morrison)
