Times of Nonchalance By Jimmy Boom Semtex

Times of Nonchalance


Madness abounds in this new book by Jimmy Boom Semtex, Times of Nonchalance. From the opening poem (A Bit of Delight about a stern woman into shady things) to the last (Blue Religion about a man seduced by a mermaid), everything is here. Sex, online romance, poems about arseholes and chavs, war in the air, the loss of a pet dog and much more. Each piece of work is unique, memorable and simply written to get the impact across. Jimmy is proud of his book. A section of local photos from around Jimmy's home town add to the character. Images include Dark Satanic Mills, of gold pussycats, of council camera cars spying on the local populace and more. Enjoy this book and enter Jimmy's surreal yet strangely familiar world.
