Fuse/Fracture written by Patrick Jones and published by Parthian Books.
“Thoughtful, provocative and challenging, these poems engage and enrage”
Peter Tatchell, Human rights campaigner
“Very strong stuff” Harold Pinter
“‘Residual’ and ‘Mornings Teach Us Shadows’ are probably my favourite that he has ever written. Personal experience distilled, raw, visceral that aims to connect not confuse. I hope you feel the same way.” James Dean Bradfield
“He reminds us of the importance of feeling seen, celebrated and listened to and that our voices matter. He inspires us to fight for our space to be heard” Rhiannon White
