Unruly Blood

'the song soil sweat of it knowing nothing ofa binary bondage a bountiful mess of myself everything under the sun is changing all thetime all my skin soft lovers flocking to the river' Olivia Douglass' new pamphlet takes us into the shape-shifting experiences of young selfhood, family and what it means to be between worlds. Douglass' poetry is like a strong shot of the good stuff, an irresistible introduction to this multi-talented artist. 'The poems of Unruly Blood are careful, dangerous, sparse; full. Each space held within it sings as much as its words do, its every phrase simmers first before spilling over with untold possibility.' Victoria Adukwei Bulley 'An artist of the body, in Unruly Blood, Douglass transmits physical sensation to the page with rapturous fluidity. Expressive of the joy and pain of every kind of love, their work sings with exciting originality.' Erica Wagner 'Olivia Douglass is a new, clear voice and these are deep, intriguing, dangerous poems.' Brian Eno
