My Opus In A Nutshell

Darren Scott was born in 1975 in Manchester, a gritty yet optimistic industrial town in the north of England. This was the home of many of his generations most influential musicians. The Smiths, Oasis, and The Stone Roses all hail from this creative and vibrant city. Bob Dylan first became a "Judas" whilst playing here, and the Beatles came from just 30 miles away. These "poets'" words and music have all made an indelible mark his writing style. That, coupled with the fact that Darren is also a professional designer, make his book an interesting and creative read. My Opus in a Nutshell, his first book of poetry, shares some of the hopes, fears, and experiences he has encountered during the first thirty years of his life.
