Rebel Sun by Sophie McKeand

A collection about the fluidity of time and place, Rebel Sun charts our gradual unraveling; the compulsion to transform and shape-shift, to slowly unwind roots from the earth - grow fin and feather, know water and sky.Michael Sheen performed a poem Sophie McKeand had written for the 50th Anniversary of the Abarfan Disaster at Wales Millennium Centre in 2016:http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/local-news/michael-sheen-gives-moving-recital-12018594.Following the success of our crowdfunder for Cawl by Sion Tomos Owen in 2016, this is our next crowdfunder in 2017.

She has gigged regularly across the UK and will make videos and offer some very special perks for those wanting to pledge their support.

Rebel Sun Reviews

'Sophie writes poems in which strange, old, true things are forced into contact with the present. They twist and turn... some of the most interesting poems I've read in a long while. Genuinely original.' -Paul Kingsnorth; 'An allusive, restless sensibility turned outwards to the world; her words have heft, they grasp their way out of poetry into landscape.' - Jay Griffiths; 'Sophie McKeand embodies her poems in performance, the words flying off the page and flashing like fireflies. The effect is mesmerising and visceral.' -Fiona Owen
