      <g:title>Fuck it… Pass The Salt, Please - Poetry Collection </g:title>
      <g:description>

'Ceri Baker is a bold and beautiful poet. This courageous collection is evocative and unflinching, generous in spirit and glorious' 

Salena Godden, Poet

'Ceri Baker is an incredibly creative soul. Dedicated to the craft of writing and performance. Ceri's work is an artistic exploration of pain, perseverance and humour. Making her voice important and necessary.' 

Kat Francois, Poet

'Fuck it…Pass The Salt, Please', is a sometimes humorous 'shit sandwich' of a collection, navigating a number of 'Fuck this shit I chose my one precious life' moments. Embedded within the collection, is Ceri's personal experience of vaginal mesh injury, medical gaslighting and the subsequent loss and reclamation of sexual identity and the ‘pro-creative recovery' that experience engendered. 

The collection also illuminates the codes people raised as women have often been embedded with regarding sexual vulnerability, victim blaming, expectant abuse and lack of body autonomy. The collection resolves to embody creative expression and the manifestation of poetry as a means to ‘write the shit away’ (the name of Kat Francois’ writing workshop for women which Ceri attended for 2 years while writing this collection). 

The collection launch date is March 15th 2024

Tickets for the launch show including performances from Edward Tripp, Chris White, Julie Mullen, Harula Ladd, Poppy Jayne-Jones . Sound by Sam Walker. Film by Martin Niebroj. Tickets available from :
