Keith Jarrett's dazzlingly lyrical new collection asks how we process violence when it's lionised in our language, on street signs, in the edicts of a vengeful god. Requiem and carnival: for the dead, buried, erased, forgotten, these poems invite the reader to consider the absurd, messy and problematic with a playfulness that feels revolutionary.
Poetry Book Society Recommendation
Keith Jarrett's dazzlingly lyrical new collection asks how we process violence when it's lionised in our language, on city street signs, in the edicts of a vengeful god. Its title borrowed from an unknown songwriter, this book is a palimpsest, layering known and unknown verses: those sung in Pentecostal churches or whispered in silent worship, texted to a 3am suitor or redacted from a eulogy. These poems are requiem and carnival: for the dead, the buried, the erased, the forgotten. They are magnetic, musical, scorched in glitter, skanking on the offbeat. With courage, insight and mischief, Jarrett invites the reader to look sideways, to consider the absurd, messy and problematic with a playfulness that feels, in itself, slyly revolutionary.
