Paul Case’s ‘Spent’ is a searing mix of poetry and prose hurled straight at the heart of late capitalism. Navigating the chaos of punk, radical politics, addiction, and mental health, Case captures a world fraying at the edges, where personal demons mirror societal collapse and the line between resistance and self-destruction grows increasingly blurred.
‘Spent’ launches this Wednesday, with Paul speaking all about the book and the stories, poems and influences it contains at a free entry gig at Sketchy Beats in Great Junction Street, Edinburgh from 7.30pm onwards, 7/5/25.
