"Running Upon The Wires" is Kae Tempest's first standalone poetry book since the acclaimed "Hold Your Own". In a beautifully diverse series of formal poems, spoken songs, fragments, miniatures, and ballads, Tempest captures the sorrow at the end of a relationship and the joy at the beginning of a new love, as well as everything in between when the heart is pulled in both directions. "Running Upon The Wires" serves as, in a way, a continuation of their previous work, and is shamelessly personal and intimate in style – yet it also reaffirms Tempest's role as one of the most significant truth-telling poets: it comes as no surprise to readers that they are as direct and precise an observer of matters of the heart as they are of social and political changes. "Running Upon The Wires" is a heartbreaking, moving, and joyful book about love, in its beginnings and endings.
