Overheard in a Tower Block

Author(s): Joseph Coelho; Kate Milner (Illustrator)

Poetry

Gazing at the stars from five storeys up,smelling the bins from five storeys below. Overheard arguments,overheard laughter.A disappearing father and a Mermaid-Queen mother; statues that sing for flesh and blood; bullies who kick you under the table; perfect red trainers - and the things that lurk in the library....Award-winning poet Joseph Coelho's astonishing new collection is a powerful and moving poetic narrative about growing up in the city.
