Leading into a new era, the poetry collection "May Day" by Jackie Kay, recognized as the Poetry Book of the Year by a Scottish poet, brings forth the voices and ideas that have shaped decades of political action. From the solidarity of her childhood in Glasgow to modern movements for black rights and the impacts of the pandemic, Kay's verses capture the social and political developments of our time.
The collection includes a mapping of influential figures, such as Fanny Eaton, Paul Robeson, Angela Davis, and poet Audre Lorde, offering a new perspective on familiar narratives. At the heart of the collection are poems that reflect on Kay's recent losses, filled with sorrow, but also the light of love and celebration.
