With Sonnets for Albert, Anthony Joseph returns to the autobiographical material explored in his earlier collection Bird Head Son. In this follow-up, he weighs the impact of being the son of an absent, or mostly absent, father, Though these poems threaten to break under the weight of their emotions, they are always masterfully poised as the stylish man they depict.

Anthony Joseph is a poet, musician and academic whose work explores the transnational vibrations of the African Diaspora. As well as several poetry collections, a slew of albums, and three novels, Joseph has published critical work exploring the aesthetics of Caribbean Poetry among other subjects. Sonnets for Albert is his first poetry collection since Rubber Orchestras in 2013.
