Description
Daniel Sluman's third collection, single window is a hybrid memoir of poetry and images. In 2016, he and his wife Emily found themselves confined to their sofa due to chronic illness, with only a single window separating them from the outside world. This stark reality is captured in a precise and hyper-confessional sequence of poems, which bear witness to the loneliness and fear experienced by disabled people living in Britain. Through a fusion of poetry and photography, this book documents the realities of disabled lives, exploring themes of intimacy, unconditional love, isolation, and confinement. The result is an uncompromising and starkly-realised portrayal of life as a disabled person, offering a unique perspective on a world often overlooked. By sharing his experiences in single window, Daniel Sluman sheds light on the complexities of living with chronic illness and disability in contemporary Britain.
