These poems shunt a reader between the political and personal via unique, fragmentary and illusory turns of phrase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHolly tackles marginal bodies, landlords, bog butter, desire, domestic and civic spaces in an unique and illusory voice. She chronicles the prevailing mood of our times, mining radical and anarchic histories to offer a collection of political resistance with both absurdity and seriousness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese poems interrogate and poke fun at the expectations of people in a commodified culture with a wry humor. Combining a beautifully performed naivety with a profound intellect, this collection is a hugely original approach to a number of pressing issues. Worker's rights, feminisms, reproductive rights and marginalized bodies and their positions are all thought through in this startling and innovative voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Holly Pester\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1783786868\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781783786862\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Granta Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/08\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Holly Pester","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46881127694591,"sku":"9781783786862","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_23295a55-e13a-4091-a4df-c8c49cf3c670.jpg?v=1747970760","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/comic-timing-holly-pester-9781783786862","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
