Forlagsbeskrivelse af Rabbitbox af Wayne Holloway-Smith

‘Powerful… Intense and unforgettable'' MAX PORTER ‘I’m blown away… An astonishing work'' AMY KEY ‘Amazing… Truly a feat'' RAYMOND ANTROBUS -- A transfixing, heart-rending work which follows a mother and her young son living under the shadow of an all-consuming domestic threat, by T. 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. ‘Powerful… Intense and unforgettable'' MAX PORTER ‘I’m blown away… An astonishing work'' AMY KEY ‘Amazing… Truly a feat'' RAYMOND ANTROBUS -- A transfixing, heart-rending work which follows a mother and her young son living under the shadow of an all-consuming domestic threat, by T.
