On Connection

Staggering talent Kae Tempest's first work of non-fiction: a meditation on the power of creative connection

Beneath the surface we are all connected . . .

'An authentically soothing, powerful, thought-provoker.'
MATT HAIG

'On Connection is medicine for these wounded times.'
MAX PORTER

'On Connection came to me when I needed it most, and reminded me that the links we have to places, people, words, ourselves, are what keep us alive.'
CANDICE CARTY-WILLIAMS

This is a book about connection. About how immersing ourselves in creativity can help us cultivate greater self-awareness and bring us closer to each other.

Drawing on two decades of experience as a writer and performer, Kae Tempest champions the role of creativity - in whatever form we choose to practice it - as an act of love, helping us establish a deeper relationship to our true selves, and to others and the world we live in.

Honest, hopeful and written with piercing clarity, On Connection is an inspiring personal meditation that will transform the way you see the world.
