In poems of rare power and generosity, Smith acknowledges that in a country overrun by violence, xenophobia and disparity, and in a body defined by race, queerness, and diagnosis, it can be hard to survive, even harder to remember reasons for living. But then the phone lights up, or a shout comes up to the window, and family - blood and chosen - arrives with just the right food and some redemption.\n\u003cbr\u003e  \n\u003cbr\u003ePart friendship diary, part bright elegy, part war cry, Homie is written for friends- for Danez's friends, for yours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e'This is a book full of the turbulence of thought and desire, piloted by a writer who never loses their way' New York Times\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Danez Smith","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":43173945180403,"sku":"9781784743055","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/4284\/5939\/products\/9781784743055.jpg?v=1662061627","url":"https:\/\/www.harryhartog.com.au\/products\/homie-danez-smith-9781784743055","provider":"Harry Hartog Bookseller","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
