Description
Shortlisted for the Forward Prize Best First Collection 2023, this collection of poems explores the complexities of modern life through knowing and humorous observations. Underlying themes include embodied and disembodied spiritualities, familial mythologies, grief, and the search for identity in contemporary society. The poems in 'Cowboy' navigate the tensions between smooth, polished surfaces and the wildness that lies beneath, as well as the challenges of navigating diagnoses and early disappointment. With its unique blend of wit and depth, this collection invites readers to consider where a person grows up and what it means to be alive today. Written by Kandace Siobhan Walker, 'Cowboy' is a thought-provoking and engaging read for anyone interested in poetry that reflects the complexities of modern life.
