Becky, Harry, Leon. Ils sont jeunes, hésitent entre le cynisme et le besoin éperdu d'utopie. Chacun a des rêves, des aspirations, que la ville nourrit et feint d'encourager pour mieux les broyer. Ce roman résonne des bruits et du rythme de notre époque, dans la prose incandescente de Kate Tempest, star du hip-hop, poétesse et artiste déjà légendaire à 30 ans à peine, admirée par Virginie Despentes, Lola Lafon ou Don DeLillo. Best-seller international, ce livre impose la jeune Anglaise comme une voix majeure de la scène littéraire d'aujourd'hui.

Sismographe d'une génération à la dérive, Fracassés oscille entre rage de vivre, lutte et désespoir.
À Londres, trois jeunes gens, Ted, Danny et Charlotte se battent pour donner un sens à leur existence.
Solitude et sentiment d'aliénation s'adossent à des conditions de vie précaires et une morosité du quotidien.
Tous trois restent fortement éprouvés par la mort de leur ami Tony, survenue dix ans plus tôt.
Prisonniers de jobs insatisfaisants et de vies étriquées, ces quadragénaires sombrent dans une fuite en avant qui les absorbe et leur fait perdre la raison.
Le jour de l'anniversaire de la mort de Tony, ils décident de se retrouver le temps d'une soirée pour faire le bilan et se donner un nouvel élan.
Monologues intérieurs, scènes chorales, slams et scènes dialoguées au réalisme brut s'entremêlent avec un réalisme social des plus violents où les rêves de jeunesse se fracassent, les désillusions tournent en addictions.

B>SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2017 MERCURY MUSIC PRIZE/b>br>br>Let Them Eat Chaos, Kate Tempest's new long poem written for live performance and heard on the album release of the same name, is both a powerful sermon and a moving play for voices. Seven neighbours inhabit the same London street, but are all unknown to each other. The clock freezes in the small hours, and, one by one, we see directly into their lives: lives that are damaged, disenfranchised, lonely, broken, addicted, and all, apparently, without hope. Then a great storm breaks over London, and brings them out into the night to face each other - and their last chance to connect. Tempest argues that our alienation from one another has bred a terrible indifference to our own fate, but she counters this with a plea to challenge the forces of greed which have conspired to divide us, and mend the broken home of our own planet while we still have time. Let Them Eat Chaos is a cri de coeur and a call to action, and, both on the page and in Tempest's electric performance, one of the most powerful poetic statements of the year.

Hold Your Own, Kate Tempest's first full-length collection for Picador is an ambitious, multi-voiced work based around the mythical figure of Tiresias. This four-part work follows him through his transformations from child, man and woman to blind prophet; through this structure, Tempest holds up a mirror to contemporary life in a direct and provocative way rarely associated with poetry. A vastly popular and accomplished performance poet, Tempest commands a huge and dedicated following on the performance and rap circuit. Brand New Ancients, also available from Picador, won the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry and has played to packed concert halls on both sides of the Atlantic.

B>'Whether on stage or on the page, her language hits like lightning. It illuminates and it burns.' Guardian/b>Running Upon The Wires is Kate Tempest's first book of free-standing poetry since the acclaimed Hold Your Own. In a beautifully varied series of formal poems, spoken songs, fragments, vignettes and ballads, Tempest charts the heartbreak at the end of one relationship and the joy at the beginning of a new love; but also tells us what happens in between, when the heart is pulled both ways at once.Running Upon The Wires is, in a sense, a departure from her previous work, and unashamedly personal and intimate in its address - but will also confirm Tempest's role as one of our most important poetic truth-tellers: it will be no surprise to readers to discover that she's no less a direct and unflinching observer of matters of the heart than she is of social and political change. Running Upon The Wires is a heartbreaking, moving and joyous book about love, in its endings and in its beginnings.
