What if you had the chance to tell your hero just how much they meant to you?

If Nick Drake came to my house
and knocked upon the door
I’m sure I’d be more happy
than I’ve ever been before…

In If Nick Drake Came to My House, Mackenzie Crook – the creator of Detectorists and Worzel Gummidge – explores the power of art to impact our lives, expressed through verse and image depicting an imaginary visit from the late, great singer-songwriter. A tender homage to a classic book by Joan Gale Thomas, Crook’s first book for adults is infused with his characteristic warm humour, both in the short yet powerful story and his own beautiful illustrations. It’s a book for anyone who has ever wished they had the chance to tell their hero how much they meant to them.

Mackenzie Crook is a BAFTA award-winning writer, comedian, actor, and director known for his work across TV, film and theatre. He is known for playing Gareth Keenan in The Office, as well as Hollywood roles such as Ragetti in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise and Orell in the HBO series Game of Thrones. He created and starred in the BAFTA-winning sitcom Detectorists, and he wrote, directed and starred in the recent TV adaptation of Worzel Gummidge. He is the author of two books for children, The Windvale Sprites and The Lost Journals of Benjamin Tooth. He lives in London.
