<p><i>Hold Your Own</i>, Kae 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.<br><br>A vastly popular and accomplished performance poet, Tempest commands a huge and dedicated following on the performance and rap circuit. <i>Brand New Ancients</i>, 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.</p>
