Description
From the T. S. Eliot Prize-winning author of Sonnets for Albert comes a dextrous and versatile new collection spanning the emotional spectrum of unabashed joy and crippling grief
With musicality and verve, beloved poet and musician Anthony Joseph undertakes a bold new work, excavating the complex nature of feeling. Across London, New York, Trinidad and beyond, whether a funeral in New Cross or a house party in Mount Lambert, Joseph brings heart, soul and verbal ingenuity to the act of unifying life's beautiful fragments.

A wonderful collection of poetry and lyrical prose. Nostalgic, suspenseful and inspiring. It reminded me a little of “The Last House on Mango Street.” I would love to read some more from this author.

Thank you to the publishers & NetGalley for my ARC.
An enjoyable journey through poetry, pose and the occasional photo. I enjoyed the presentation of these works. Sometimes challenging in a way that seeks the reader to meet the poet where they are at for that particular piece.
