Book description
The poems in Cowboy are knowing, millennial, internet-sick, funny, with deep currents - of embodied and disembodied spiritualities; familial mythologies; grief and longing; navigating diagnoses; early and enduring disappointment; the wildness underneath the smooth glass-and-chrome surfaces of contemporary life.The echo of a question permeates the collection - where does a person grow up? - moving restlessly between rural Wales, London and the American South; between the esoteric spaces of the internet; between the artlessness of childhood and adolescence transfigured inexplicably into a disquieting adulthood, with its attendant weirdness of rent-paying, cohabiting, the churn of mindless work and alienation.The generous abundance of Cowboy's references - memes, early noughties television shows, pop songs, cities and their suburbs, video games - bring anxiety and pressure, joy and glory to this singularly impressive debut.
