A fierce, tender, political collection that asks how to express the fullness of identity and desire in the face of a hostile state.

All discipline
a deception to hide the wildness,
all symmetry an excuse for keeping count.

Tomorrow Someone Will Arrest You cements Meena Kandasamy as one of the most exciting, radical thinkers at work today.

These poems chronicle wanting, art-making, and the practising of resistance and solidarity in the face of a hostile state. Here, the personal is political, and Kandasamy moves between sex, desire, family and wider societal issues of caste, the refugee crisis, and freedom of expression with grace and defiance.

This is a bold, unforgettable collection by a poet who compels us to sit up and listen.
