Chappy Hour: An Italian Coffee Cocktail for Some Birds Walk for the Hell of It

Some Birds Walk for the Hell of It is a lively collection of poems that expose Vancouver’s bohemian heart. Like a cross between Lenny Bruce and Anis Nin, Avery’s poetry is alternately profane, brilliantly vulgar, unsettling, outrageously funny and brash in it’s lonesome courage, and unquestionably original. Take this collection to East Vancouver’s Little Italy and cozy up with C.R. Avery, his banjo-playing punks, and an Italian Coffee Cocktail.
