Hold Your Own, Kae Tempest's first full-length collection for
Picador is an ambitious, multi-voiced work based around the
mythical figure of Tiresias. This four-part work follows him
through his transformations from child, man and woman to blind
prophet; through this structure, Tempest holds up a mirror to
contemporary life in a direct and provocative way rarely associated
with poetry. A vastly popular and accomplished performance poet,
Tempest commands a huge and dedicated following on the performance
and rap circuit. Brand New Ancients, also available from Picador,
won the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry and has played to
packed concert halls on both sides of the Atlantic.
