Clever, witty poetry with a distinct Northern attitude that is unique in its presentation - Rebecca Kenny, Bent Key Founder and author of Crash & Learn
If ya want anything on learning the ways o'Wiggin, the North of England, its people and its culture... I would never recommend a book like this, written by such a person. Sales ov pies an gravy will be down within't next fortneet - Unnamed Angry Pie Eyter
James Walton is a Wigan lad through-and-through, and this shines bright in this very special debut chapbook.
Containing poetry all about Wigan life - from food to family, football pitches to pie barms - James' inimitable style will pull you in from the very first line. It's funny, it's clever, it's chips and gravy with a pie barm and a side of pey wet for good measure.
Written phonetically in an instantly-recognisable Lancashire accent and dialect, Beltin' is a whistle-stop tour through the life of a working class lad from the North.
