| book description |

From the writer of â€˜Beware of the Bullâ€™.... Hilarious, irreverent, poignant, fanciful, quirky, imaginative, original, musical, Jake Thackray was a storytelling genius who loved using words to entertain, move, surprise and provoke. While his extraordinary songs are rightly celebrated, they were not the beginning of his life as a wordsmith, nor the end. â€˜Jake Thackray â€“ The Unsung Writerâ€™ is a chance to explore Jakeâ€™s other writings, including love poetry; an experimental short story; his charming script for a school musical; amusing pen portraits; his first published work; tall tales crafted for his concerts; and his acclaimed, colourful columns for the â€˜Yorkshire Postâ€™ and â€˜Catholic Heraldâ€™. This entertaining collection provides fresh insights into Jakeâ€™s creativity and the development of his distinctive voice
