The Hoarders

£4.50£6.00

Innovative and challenging, Caleb Leow’s The Hoarders is a winner of the 2023 New Poets’ Prize.

The Hoarders resounds with a subtle and unsettling music which creates its own complex, multilingual logic, even as Leow brings an attentive eye and an inquisitive wit to bear on a wide range of themes both personal and political. These are vivid and evocative poems which bear re-reading, and Leow is clearly a talent to watch.’ – Mary Jean Chan

What Writers and Critics Think

  • A pamphlet which interrogates human waste is a risky strategy – but in these wide-ranging, inventive poems, it absolutely pays off. The objectification of the body – whether that is the migrant body, the female body or the working class body is held up to the light through skilful handling of form and imagery.
