Staff Reviews
Isn’t it nice when a book finds you, rather than the other way around? This happened to me with this one, on a day where I was feeling disconnected and despondent. Tempest, a poet and performer, published this pamphlet during the pandemic, and three years later their wisdom still holds. Tempest reminds us that creativity is the pathway to connection, a counter to the numbness and despair that seems to have a grip on all of us these days. Buy this and read it in one sitting. I promise you’ll feel better.

Description
Staggering talent Kae Tempest's first work of non-fiction: a meditation on the power of creative connection. Beneath the surface we are all connected . . . This is a meditation on the power of creative connection. Drawing on twenty years' experience as a writer and performer, Kae Tempest explores how and why creativity - however we choose to practise it - can cultivate greater self-awareness and help us establish a deeper relationship to ourselves and the world.
Honest, tender and written with piercing clarity,
On Connection is a call to arms that speaks to a universal yet intimate truth.
