The poems collated here range widely through time and space, from the Glasgow of the poet’s childhood around the world and through history, but all with the distinct devotional aspect which has always characterized Jackie Kay’s work. This is the definitive volume of a trailblazing career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePraise for Jackie Kay:‘An utterly unique poet who distils the most complex and difficult themes into clear-eyed, elegant, moving, humorous and simply exquisite poetry’ - Bernardine Evaristo'Jackie Kay is the people's poet because she puts language where it starts - in our mouths, and holds it where it belongs - in our hearts' - Jeanette Winterson'A beautiful writer at the top of her game' - Andrew O'Hagan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57561745424759,"sku":"9781037423246","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0357\/3199\/6807\/files\/9781037423246.jpg?v=1792080631","url":"https:\/\/thebookhousebroughtyferry.co.uk\/products\/9781037423246","provider":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
