“Einstein’s Bicycle” by Poet Terry Dammery with Conrad Press 2020 

ZOOM ONLINE BOOK LAUNCH AT BUXTON FRINGE FESTIVAL 9TH & 16TH JULY 2020

 

Einstein’s Bicycle is a slow-burn rant about life’s drama as seen by those who fill the paupers’ pit. Its heroes are the descendants of the bowmen and those who manned the gun-decks. They are the children of the levellers, those who worked the looms and spun the thread – clichés of their class, yet resilient and spirited, always conscious of their inheritance.

 

This verse-novel begins with the tale of a maid in the shadow of the Cenotaph and unfolds as the celebration of a culture as old as Chaucer and proud of its vitality to tilt at pomposity and privilege, sustained by the principle of Einstein’s bicycle – keep pedalling or you’ll fall off.

 

​Terry lives in the English Peak District with his family in a house that’s in the clouds. He writes poetry and prose fiction, mostly to make sense of things and walks the hills with his Yorkshire Terrier to hold back the years.

 

He’s previously performed at The Edinburgh Fringe 2012 with fellow Edale Poet Simon Jackson and on the Buxton Fringe 2012. He has featured extensively in Agenda Poetry, Erbacce Press, Dream Catcher, Inpress to name but a few.
