Come and hear Nic Aubury perform some of the poetry from his new book Small Talk.  Describing himself as part grumpy dad, part pedant, part armchair philosopher, Nic, a Classics teacher has expertly trained the English language to do his bidding; watch it come to heel, roll over and walk on its hind legs all for your amusement.

Small Talk is packed full of pithy one-liners, sharp observations and impeccable metre concerning the inanities of modernity and the petty grievances of everyday life. Within these pages lie joy, frivolity and just a touch of sadness.
