Hawkey's poems chart the loss of a father and the resilient love between siblings, and take an unflinching look at a parent-child relationship sometimes painfully inverted through alcoholism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHawkey's fresh perspective and playful style introduces a vital, authentic new voice in British poetry. It will appeal also to those interested in the wider literature of addiction and the complexities of urban working-class life in Britain. Hawkey approaches these subjects from highly original and personal angles, breathing life into his characters and settings. Ultimately, we come to know a young writer attempting to 'detach with love' as he strides forward into his own life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jake Hawkey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1035048108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781035048106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Picador UK\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/07\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.78h x 6.09w x 0.39d","brand":"Jake Hawkey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47423251513599,"sku":"9781035048106","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_98cc43c9-95aa-483a-8a51-39ddd33e0f06.jpg?v=1761528437","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/but-though-jake-hawkey-9781035048106","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
