Description

Hannah Lowe's first collection of poems explores her complex relationship with her father, a man who lived a shadowy existence in London's East End. His nickname "Chick" is the starting point for a deeply personal narrative that delves into his life, death, and legacy.

Through vivid and evocative language, Lowe brings to life the sights, sounds, and emotions of her childhood, weaving together fragments of her father's story with her own perceptions of him as a parent. The result is a powerful and moving exploration of love, loss, grief, and regret.

This collection has won several awards, including the 2015 Michael Murphy Memorial Prize, and has been shortlisted for others. With its unique blend of personal narrative and poetic style, "Chick" is a compelling and thought-provoking read.
