S. Eliot Prize-shortlisted poet Wayne Holloway-Smith.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e24 Coalbrook Street. The house is trembling with a father's anger. It makes a rabbit of a young boy, sends him burrowing into a wardrobe, and leaves his mother standing hapless and mute over the kitchen sink. In this house, how far can a mother’s comfort travel?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the safety of his hiding place, from the magnitude of his fear, a young girl appears offering a way out. Taking him by the hand, reaching through time, she leads him elsewhere; a mother’s love dreaming him away from their reality to the promise – beautiful yet flickering – of a river.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHaunting, precise and tender, RABBITBOX heralds a major new work from one of Britain's most exciting writers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e--\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e‘It takes a rare poet to make such magic of such brutality, but Holloway-Smith is the rarest kind: tender, curious, vivid, and wild. He bunches language like a fist, one that unravels into shadow butterflies, the idea of escape...
