This collection grapples with what it means to be a father, a son and a self. Subverting the notions of gender, Stewart addresses both the damage of old stereotypes and the passage of generational trauma, questioning how we might change.

Ordorica 'These poems are a revelation. I took great comfort from Thomas Stewart's collection' – Lotte Jeffs
