S. Eliot Prize-shortlisted poet Wayne Holloway-Smith.24 Coalbrook Street. The house is trembling with a father's anger. It makes a rabbit of a young boy, sends him burrowing into a wardrobe, and leaves his mother standing hapless and mute over the kitchen sink. In this house, how far can a mother’s comfort travel?From the safety of his hiding place, from the magnitude of his fear, a young girl appears offering a way out. Taking him by the hand, reaching through time, she leads him elsewhere; a mother’s love dreaming him away from their reality to the promise – beautiful yet flickering – of a river.Haunting, precise and tender, RABBITBOX heralds a major new work from one of Britain's most exciting writers.--‘It takes a rare poet to make such magic of such brutality, but Holloway-Smith is the rarest kind: tender, curious, vivid, and wild. He bunches language like a fist, one that unravels into shadow butterflies, the idea of escape... RABBITBOX is my book of 2026.’ - JOELLE TAYLOR \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wayne Holloway-Smith","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52731468087614,"sku":"9781398552425","price":395.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/files\/9781398552425.jpg?v=1765548369","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9781398552425","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
