Book description
A scintillating debut meditating on love, parental addiction and loss, from a new voice in British poetry.'Hawkey's poems are electric, buzzing with all the possibilities of language. He has much to say, and is saying it brilliantly' - Nick Laird, winner of the Forward Prize for Poetry and author of Up LateThe characters that live and breathe in Jake Hawkey's impressive debut poetry collection are playful and spiritual, often both defensive and desperately vulnerable. Taking its title from the language of addiction, with its circles of prevarication and excuse, But & Though leads us on a boy's journey through a childhood overshadowed by parental alcoholism.These are poems on the move in the tapestry of London life - from the hospital ward to the back rows of the bus - where the desire for escape is also, paradoxically, a 'Herculean search for home'. But & Though is a testament to the kinship ties that bind us together, however fraught they become, and a celebration of the working-class identity that defines the poet's native south London. With a voice as spiky and irreverent as it is gentle, Jake Hawkey is a refreshing new talent in English poetry.'This collection moved me to tears. It is not only daring and accomplished, it is real and written by a young man who has been on a long dark journey and found himself with light in his writing hand' - Sally Read, editor of 100 Great Catholic Poems
