Have It by John Cooper Clarke - Signed Edition - *Pre-Order 1st October 2026*

This is the pre-order page for the signed edition of Have It by John Cooper Clarke. Your order will be fulfilled upon publication: 1st October 2026.

Legendary punk poet John Cooper Clarke is back and his gaze has only become more
piercing since our last check-up with the good Doctor. Our sardonic hero, at once icon and
iconoclast, guides us through the absurdities of modern life in his signature ‘high heel Chelseas’, their rapid-fire click-clack reverberating across the lines of his verse and off the walls of those institutions unlucky enough to find themselves deserving of an ode.

But what happens when the Doctor turns his diagnostic gaze inward? In Have It, more than in any other collection, Clarke confronts his mortality head-on. The result, while quintessential John Cooper Clarke, is simultaneously more comic and more tragic than ever before.
