Description
Far District is a debut poetry collection that explores the intersection of two cultures. Ishion Hutchinson's poems weave together childhood memories and imaginative visions, shaped by books, art, music, and travel, to create a new understanding of what 'home' might mean. Through his gorgeously textured language, Hutchinson captures the physical rhythms of Jamaica as well as the broader metaphysical rhythms of distance and displacement. His poems are urgent, authentic, deeply felt, and beautifully shaped, offering a unique perspective on the world. With an ear attuned to the blue above and below, Hutchinson's work is marked by high artistic merit and a love of world literature that spurs his ambition. This collection is a thoughtful and generous exploration of identity, culture, and belonging.
