If we are captured souls with fleeting dreams, then Booth-Jones' poems are living, breathing and reaching through the bars, holding fallen leaves and faded polaroids. The collection fluctuates between liminality and longing, capitalism and contentment, showing defiance by shaping their echoes. At the edge of the sky, drenched in advertisements and sunlight, the moon eats, the wind laughs and Booth-Jones writes letters. We are brighter and more gentle for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003eLeonie Rowland, author of \u003cem\u003eIn Bed with Melon Bread\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders will find themselves lost in the intense observations of a world both 'impossible and real' in this series of missive-poems slowly unfurling through each line. Often transcendent, sometimes wry, always soulful and beautiful, this series of letters addresses hypothetical lovers, the city and the self, amongst others-delivering a sequence which is rich, profound, personal and completely addictive. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003eVic Pickup, author of \u003cem\u003eLost \u0026amp; Found\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is not easy to follow a successful first collection but with Open Letters to the Sky, Booth-Jones does it with aplomb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003eNiall M Oliver, author of \u003cem\u003eMy Boss\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bren Booth-Jones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1913499790\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781913499792\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hedgehog Poetry Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/04\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.10d","brand":"Bren Booth-Jones","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44074953539839,"sku":"9781913499792","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_84c08afb-36e2-4e8a-8267-754505342803.jpg?v=1685456746","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/open-letters-to-the-sky-bren-booth-jones-9781913499792","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
