On Connection by Kae Tempest

Description Beneath the surface we are all connected . . . Award-winning poet, rapper and storyteller Kae Tempest’s first work of non-fiction: a meditation on the power of creative connection. Drawing on twenty years’ experience as a writer and performer, Kae Tempest explores how and why creativity – however we choose to practise it – can cultivate greater self-awareness and help us establish a deeper relationship to ourselves and the world. Personal, hopeful and written with piercing clarity, On Connection is a call to arms that speaks to a universal yet intimate truth. ‘Powerful and merciful.’ Ali Smith ‘Tempest doesn’t just leap off the page, but leaps into your throat and demands to be shouted all the way out.’ Marlon James ‘[Kae’s] language hits like lightning. It illuminates and it burns.’ Guardian Beneath the surface we are all connected . . .
