Plague Clothes : Poems from the Covid-recovery love-stream, Hardback Book

Plague Clothes : Poems from the Covid-recovery love-stream Hardback

Hardback

Description

Originally written as a series of Facebook status updates during the recovery from Covid-19, Robert Alan Jamieson's Plague Clothes is an immediate and intimate account of one person's battle with the virus that emphasises the universality of our struggle during the pandemic.

Moving seamlessly between sharp satire, confessional and philosophical enquiry, Jamieson takes aim at Western government, laments the current ecological crisis, and challenges our treatment of the so-called 'old and vulnerable', carried all the way by a rare voice of wisdom and protest at a time when ageism in society risks reducing an entire generation to statistics.

Published in beautiful hardback with seventeen black and white photographs. Longlisted for the 2020 Highland Book Prize.
