From T. S. Eliot Prize-winning poet and musician Anthony Joseph, author of Sonnets for Albert, comes a powerful new collection of poetry exploring memory, identity, belonging, and the full range of human emotion.

Moving between London, New York, Trinidad, and beyond, Joseph draws on personal experiences, cultural connections, and everyday moments to explore the ways joy, grief, love, and loss shape our lives.

From a funeral in New Cross to a lively house party in Trinidad, his poems capture the contrasts of human experience, finding meaning in both moments of celebration and times of sorrow.

Combining rich imagery, musical rhythms, and inventive language, Joseph brings together fragments of memory, family, and cultural heritage to create a collection that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.

Thoughtful, moving, and full of energy, this collection is perfect for readers who enjoy contemporary poetry exploring identity, the Caribbean diaspora, and the connections between music, memory, and the human experience.
