The debut collection from Manchester-based queer poet Roma Havers, winner of the Northern Writers' Award for Poetry 2024.
Roma Havers is a queer poet, theatre-maker and unsolicited go-go dancer - from your hometown but living in Manchester with their partner, allotment and every stone they've ever pocketed. Commissioned by Orchestra's Live, Manchester City of Literature and Manchester Museum, among many others, they are known for their 'joyful, communal and tender' work. They have been published in Ink Sweat and Tears, Verve Poetry Prize (Shortlisted), The North and Under the Radar. Alongside their poetry work, they have produced writer development programmes, mentored many poets and produced work for performance including their show LOB, which toured the North West and Belfast in 2022, with their play Helmet with Laughter Lines being longlisted for the Bruntwood Playwriting prize the same year. They were winner of the 2024 Northern Writers' Award for Poetry with The Natural Way, their first collection with Carcanet Press.
