A Few More Sunrises Yet Before It Ends

<p>Martin Hayes' <em>A Few More Sunrises Yet Before It Ends</em> gathers together decades of sharp unsparing poetry that documents the underpaid overworked lives of Britain's contemporary working class. Hayes' verse moves through courier control rooms dead-end shifts bureaucratic absurdities and private struggles tracing how capitalism's grinding pressures shape not just labour but identity relationships and the very sense of self. With biting humour documentary precision and a refusal of sentimentality the collection offers a sustained reckoning with work class precarity and survival in the twenty-first century. This is a voice that matters and these are poems that demand to be reckoned with.  </p>
