Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. LA Baby! by Tim Key is a hilarious fever dream as one man navigates heartbreak, hangovers, and hotel rooms in a poetic, chaotic journey through modern masculinity.
What We Say: “LA Baby! is the latest pocket-sized poetry collection from well-loved British writer, poet and comedian Tim Key. Charting his journey from Heathrow to Hollywood for a new acting gig, these witty, often poignant poems capture the surreal highs and quiet lows of a Brit navigating the strange dreamscape of LA. Illustrated and designed by long-time collaborator Emily Juniper, it’s a charming, sharply observed snapshot of an outsider in the City of Angels.” – Pia Brynteson
What They Say: “LA Baby is a hilarious and often dreamlike chronicle of Key’s mounting insecurities” – Rachel Aroesti
