Overheard in a Tower Block Award-winning author by Joseph Coelho (author) and Kate Milner (illustrator)

Gazing at the stars from five storeys up,

smelling the bins from five storeys below.

Overheard arguments,

overheard laughter.

A disappearing father and a Mermaid-Queen mother; statues that sing for flesh and blood; bullies who kick you under the table; perfect red trainers – and the things that lurk in the library….

Award-winning poet Joseph Coelho’s astonishing new collection is a powerful and moving poetic narrative about growing up in the city.
