Jacob Davies

The Toby Gribben Show Highlights - A podcast by Shout Radio

"Born and living in West Yorkshire, England, Jacob Davies has become a poet who can reflect the complexities and struggles of living as a young person in confusing times. His acute wit, clarity and ability to articulate the seemingly incomprehensible, sets him apart whilst creating a rare resonance with his audience that brings to the fore the thoughts many have and try to keep hidden. His poetry is his way of expressing his views, his anger, his incredulity and his complete lack of comprehension of how the world functions today. His first collection ‘The Things They’ve Never Seen’ accumulated much praise and intrigue from his growing numbers of supporters who continue to appreciate his redraw honesty and openness. ‘Every Night is November’ is his second published poetry collection. Aside from his poetry, Jacob is also co-editor of Morrissey fanzine ‘Knockabout World, which was founded in 2020 and has released four issues to date. He also has written a number of short stories. Jacob is a huge music fan and an avid reader, with Anne Sexton, Oscar Wilde, Morrissey, Belle & Sebastian and Mark Morriss cited as his influences in literature and music.”  Hosted on Acast.
