  NYT Bestselling Author, Frederick Joseph, explores a new genre in this captivating poetry collection that seeks to find joy in moments of difficulty whether through illuminating the beauty of being Black, highlighting the hope that can be found in childhood, or by sharing intimate truths revealed on a mental health journey. This book will appeal to both new and established readers of poetry. 
   
  Step into the world of We Alive, Beloved, where its words will resonate within the deepest corners of your soul, leaving a mark on your heart and a renewed appreciation for the beauty of being alive. 
   
  We Alive, Beloved moves beyond being a poetry collection; it's a celebration of the profound aspects of our existence. Each poem seeks to immortalize the fleeting moments of joy, love, resilience, and inspiration that often slip through the grasp of our fast-paced lives. 
   
  In this poetic testament, we defy the ephemeral nature of beauty and goodness, daring to clutch onto these facets of life for just a little longer. With words that stand as guardians against the relentless march of time and the ceaseless tides of change, trauma, and grief, this collection becomes a sanctuary of light in a world that sometimes seems dim. 
   
  We Alive, Beloved explores a rich tapestry of themes, from the intricacies of relationships and the heartache of loss, to the wide-eyed wonder of existence and the challenges of exploring the possibility of parenthood in our modern age. Each poem reaches out to readers, offering a mirror to their own journeys and emotions, inviting them to be seen and acknowledged in its lyrical embrace.

  The life and career of a Poet is often thought of as musing at a desk, or lying in a meadow, or on long journeys to find inspiration for their next masterwork.  But more often than not a poet was a part-time profession in subservient submission to their actual, salary-paying job.   
  In this volume we bring together those professionals whose services we require when our health falters.  Their skills and manner guide us through the sometimes difficult journey back to restored vigour.  In their clever use of words and verse they are equally adept.

  'I didn't expect it so soon, that's all. It made it seem so final, all our lives, those decisions all irreversible, immortalised in a slideshow to a Coldplay track.'
  Helen is forty when she loses her husband. Her daughter Becca is fifteen when her dad dies. Now it's just the two of them... what do they do next?
  Unfolding through snapshots of a relationship over forty years, Helen explores the threads which bind mother and daughter together, how they damage each other, and how they come to each other's rescue.
  A play for two actors – about love, grief, and getting ashes stuck to your trouser leg – Helen by Maureen Lennon was shortlisted for the 2020 Theatre503 International Playwriting Award. It was first produced at Theatre503, London, in 2023, in a co-production with Terrain, a company dedicated to promoting Northern artists and the stories they tell.

  Heavy Is the Head

  "Where does all the grief go when it's not tugging at your wrist?" Enyegue's debut collection is an ode to girlhood, to Blackness, to generational trauma, sexual assault, and mental health. 
   
  This collection does not aim to heal anyone who reads it, but instead help them confront their own healing. Rather than sugar-coated bullets that enter you lightly, these poems are designed to hurt.  
   
  They are for the girls with difficult names, the boys with softness at their core, and the people with neither. They are meant for the people who are Black, and the people who are not—because we are all tethered together by the heaviness of the human experience.

  Oi You Lot

  'The sky belongs to everybody and everybody belongs to the sky.
  When the genie comes out, wish for late busesand missed trains, and beers on benches,because when someone is gone, they are gone.'
  Kareem Parkins-Brown's highly-anticipated pamphlet is an audacious and richly plural celebration of friends and selves, present and otherwise. In Parkins-Brown's hands, language bends like an illusionist's spoon – a dazzling, fisheye-lens distortion of daily grief, absurdity and communion – while reminding us always that the trick is to carry on living.
  'Kareem Parkins-Brown's excellent pamphlet is like a funeral held in a bouncy castle: the line-breaks slip on their own tears, jumping mourners get bruised by their collisions and the laughing starts to sound a lot like crying.' Caroline Bird
  'I have been waiting for this book for years. There's no voice like Kareem Parkin-Brown's. Sacred and profane, these are critical, kinetic poems for, and of, right now.' Rachel Long
  'Kareem Parkins-Brown is one of the most beloved wordsmiths on the London poetry circuit. 'Oi You Lot' will show its readers why.' Raymond Antrobus
