Goldhawk Road by Kate Noakes
In Goldhawk Road, her eighth collection, Kate Noakes raises questions of identity the who and where we are, the where and who we want to be.
‘Kate Noakes’s poems sparkle with striking images and mischievious humour yet are always dart-precise when articulating the human condition, the impact of art, the crisis of a changing climate and the magnetic pull of placeIn Goldhawk Road, Noakes observes the world from her west London vantage point, but the poems reach out to a broader sense of self and belonging. And even in the collection’s darker moments, there is consolation: “I know we are living in the end / of days. Still, there is art." This collection speaks to that truth’ — TAMAR YOSELOFF
