Let the Jews Win

Author BioJohn Tucker was born in London in 1982 to a Finnish mother and an English father. He graduated with a First Class honours degree in English, Creative Writing and Practice from Lancaster University in 2009. He now lives in Cumbria at the foot of the Lakeland's oldest fell Black Combe with his mother and brother. John has a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder and turns to writing and music too as a means of salvation.Book DescriptionJohn Tucker's latest collection with Chipmunka, Let The Jews Win, is a binary-machine comprised of two long poems. It is counter-poetic and post-Eliotious in style and seems to refine a summary of his position as a writer. The first piece quotes freely from his already existing oeuvre to create a stream of images with a mathemagical implication; the second piece follows on as a logical consequence of the first. It is in many ways about simply doing enough. It is also a journey of spiritual healing.
