{"product_id":"9781643621784","title":"So Much for Life : Selected Poems by Sam Ladkin","description":"A long awaited collection of poems by Mark Hyatt, one of the great lost writers of mid-century British poetry.   Scarcely published in his lifetime, Hyatt's work -survives thanks to the intervention of poets and friends who saved his manuscripts and kept his poems in circulation. Queer in the decades before Gay Liberation; Romani; incarcerated in prisons and asylums; illiterate into adulthood: it's tempting to read Hyatt according to the familiar script of the doomed poet, resounding with loneliness and isolation. But his poetry-\"hot and tender,\" funny and sad-tells another story: of love, liberatory commitment, and desire.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56302784741749,"sku":"9781643621784","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781643621784.jpg?v=1762793272","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781643621784","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
