Matt Harvey

Wondermentalist host, poet and columnist, enemy of all that’s difficult and upsetting, Matt Harvey performs up and down the country at festivals, cabarets, conferences and colleges and shares his thoughts with the world on the Wondermentalist blog, and on Soul and Soil. He is a regular contributor to BBC Radio 4’s Saturday Live and his podcasts for Wonderful Radio can be heard here.The Guardian described Matt (accidentally) as “one of Britain’s leading poets”, the Dorset Echo as “fabulously understated”, and the Times as “a word-based organism from Devon.” The Independent called him “a pale man in a suit”. His latest book is The Hole in the Sum of my Parts “It’s a tiny treasure – not only funny, but tender and true” (The Guardian).
