Om denne lydboken
Brought To You By Penguin.
The audiobook edition of Surge, written and read by Jay Bernard.
Winner of The Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year Award 2020.
*Winner of the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry 2018*
Jay Bernard's powerful debut is a queer exploration of the black British archive, tracing a line between two significant events in recent British history: the New Cross Massacre of 1981 in which thirteen young black people were killed in a house fire - and the Grenfell Tower fire in 2017. The collection stems from research undertaken about the New Cross Fire during a 2016 residency at the George Padmore Institute.
