Goonie, the debut collection from award-winning Scottish poet and spoken word artist Michael Mullen, is a raw and joyful tribute to working-class life, queer resilience, and the lifegiving power of language.
Mullen's poetry embraces the full spectrum of human connection - familial, romantic, platonic - infusing it all with a sense of celebration. Rooted in both Scots and Standard English, these poems explore identity, belonging, nature and the communities that shape us.
Using experimental forms, vibrant lyricism, and autobiographical snapshots, Goonie pulses with authenticity and captures the magic of queer joy and working-class pride. It's a testament to how love - of ourselves, of others, of our heritage - transforms everything.
