Book description
Unashamed follows the journey of World Poetry Slam Champion Harry Baker from graduating with a maths degree being unsure if this poetry thing was even possible, to becoming one of the nation's favourite poets and having his work viewed by millions all over the globe.A collection of poems taken from sold out shows combined with new work written at a time when that was no longer possible. From the joyful creativity of German compound words to having his prime number poetry shared on TED.com, it took Harry far too long to realise that maths has been as much a part of his work as the poetry. That both are about figuring out the world around us, finding wonder in your surroundings, and searching for connection wherever you can.From school bullying through climate change, via a healthy obsession with falafels and a 10,000th birthday, Harry's love of language and logic has got him through marathons, a cancer diagnosis and potentially ruined his wife's chances of getting a job in an ice cream shop. Unashamed is a book of heart, humour and hope. It shows what happens when you're truly able to celebrate all the parts of yourself.
About the Author
Harry Baker is a poet and maths graduate based in Margate. He became the World Poetry Slam champion in 2012 and has been the people's champion ever since. He is a big fan of playfulness and vulnerability and tries to combine both in his work as much as in his day-to-day life. His poems have been viewed by millions online, but he personally thinks they are even better in person and hopes you will come and see him perform live one day.
