Description
This debut collection by Nick Laird explores the complexities of relationships and the human need for belonging. Formally deft and rhetorically fresh, these poems tackle difficult themes with courage and resilience.
From the intimacy of lovers to the brutality of political violence, Laird balances ideas of home and flight in a nuanced exploration of cruelty, vengeance, and the human desire to rebuild and start anew.
With its brave and resolute tone, this collection affirms the possibility of growth and renewal, even in the face of adversity.
