Description for The Poet: A propulsive novel of female empowerment, solidarity and revenge
Hardback. Bright, promising Emma is entangled in a toxic romance with her old professor - and she's losing control. Cruel, charming Tom is idolized by his students and peers - confident he holds all the cards. In their small Oxford home, he manipulates and undermines her every thought and act. Soon, he will push her to the limit and she must decide: to remain quiet and submit, or to take her revenge. Written in verse and charged with passion and anger, The Poet is a portrait of a deeply dysfunctional relationship, exploring coercive control, class and privilege. It is also a page-turning tale of female solidarity and survival.
A PASSIONATE, PAGE-TURNING TALE OF COERCIVE CONTROL AND FEMALE SOLIDARITY, FOR FANS OF THREE WOMEN AND ACTS OF DESPERATION.
'This is the book I have always needed, it is F*****G BRILLIANT and everyone should read it' Nikita Gill
'A beautiful, biting page-turner' Irish Times
'Wildly original, this passionate tale of coercive control and female solidarity is nothing short of a work of art.' Zoella
