The Book of Jonah (Paperback)

Kennard’s distinctive voice – surreal, funny, anxious, always overthinking, and cringingly self-deprecating – has made him one of the most widely liked and imitated British poets under forty - Tristram Fane Saunders, The Times Literary Supplement

Kennard is an overachieving poet, the youngest ever finalist for a Forward Prize back in 2007; his work combines accessibility with formal daring and a twist of surrealism - The Guardian

Kennard . . . has a poet's ear for noticing the electric in the quotidian - The Guardian

Luke Kennard has the uncanny genius of being able to stick a knife in your heart with such originality and verve that you start thinking "aren’t knives fascinating . . . and hearts, my god!" whilst everything slowly goes black - Caroline Bird
