- Description
A post-war housing estate. Ordinary. Everyday. A place where hope and disappointment walk through the lives of the Humble family. A place where a grazed knee and the uncertainty of existence can share equal weight, dramas big and small can be too much. Life large. Life not enough …
In this debut collection, poet Nigel Hutchinson reflects on the experience of ordinary lives in the hinterlands, those places neither of the thriving centre nor the affluent suburbs. Dry, witty, often poignant and always well-observed, this is a gripping debut from an individualistic voice.
