Threads

If Alice landed in London not Wonderland this book might be the result-picture and word weft and warp to create an alchemic (rabbit) whole.On one page, the image of an alien costume-hanging surreally beside a school uniform on a washing line-accompanies a poem about fleeing suburbia. On another, a poem about seeking asylum accompanies the image of another 'alien' on an urban train. Woven through with themes of queerness and love, spun from heartfelt emotion and embroidered with humour, Threads will leave you aching with longing and laughter.
