Out for Air is the exhilarating first collection by former
professional skateboarder Olly Todd. Infused with movement,
surprise and play, Out for Air presents a unique vision of the
built environment, celebrating places where 'the bridges are
endless / beyond the cantilever / of reality'. Each poem is its own
event: expansive in scope but intricate in form, a masterclass in
precision engineering. Todd rewires T. S. Eliot's Waste Land in his
strange, compelling descriptions of the modern city: melting
asphalt; a U-turning taxi; a diner swallowed by a sinkhole. In this
disorientating landscape the skateboarder-poet is genius loci, the
spirit of the place. From Manhattan's 'silky streets' and the
Pacific Coast Highway to inner-city London and his native Cumbria,
together these poems record a life lived on the move, in motion, on
the cusp of things. 'I'm dazzled by this wonderful debut. Todd
writes with a tangible physicality, solid as a curb, so that the
language itself crunches, glides, grinds. A radically different way
of experiencing the built and natural environment and an endlessly
engaging, witty, serious and astute new voice.' LUKE KENNARD
