Publisher's summary

*Read by the author*
Beneath the surface we are all connected . . .
'An authentically soothing, powerful, thought-provoker.'
MATT HAIG
' On Connection is medicine for these wounded times.'
MAX PORTER
' On Connection came to me when I needed it most, and reminded me that the links we have to places, people, words, ourselves, are what keep us alive.'
CANDICE CARTY-WILLIAMS

This is a book about connection. About how immersing ourselves in creativity can help us cultivate greater self-awareness and bring us closer to each other.
Drawing on two decades of experience as a writer and performer, Kae Tempest champions the role of creativity - in whatever form we choose to practice it - as an act of love, helping us establish a deeper relationship to our true selves, and to others and the world we live in.
Honest, hopeful and written with piercing clarity, On Connection is an inspiring personal meditation that will transform the way you see the world.
'Persuasive and profound.' OBSERVER
'Tempest's prose is crisp and thoughtful.' NEW STATESMAN

brilliant!

So good! Kae’s voice brings so much nuance. My favorite parts are when you can feel a subtle smile round out certain sentences. This audiobook blends a profound depth of spirit with an exploration of important contemporary conversations. I’m on my second listen through, and know this is a book I’ll return to many times.

Creativity is our hope

First exposure to Kae Tempest. They expressed my deepest contemplations on the world, humans, creativity, and healing in ways I had not yet been able to construct. Their heart shines through it all and has given me hope.

Powerful!

This is by far a very powerful book Kae articulates the mystery of creativity in an intimate way that comes through with her keen insight into her life and her self. The book is a special gift that will hit every nerve in your soul and will leave you with goosebumps. Also, her narration feels like a friend is sharing their most inner most thoughts and unique story. This is a book that does make a connection into what it is to be human.

A poet philosopher who feels like a friend, but speaks like a prophet to our time. Thankful for this book. May it spread like wildfire.

Kae's mentoring

I was Very excited about next Kae project. Very intense; inspiration and intelectual listenings for me. Kae is not only great 21. poet but also brilliant esseist on many different themes and subjects. yes she quetes many authors and ideas like Blake, Jung and so on. and get quite rigit and academical somewhere. If you are interested in 20 year of experienced writer's genius listen Kae On Connection and walkman throught the Wild nature while sunset for more astonisment. Our fitness and very original wordsmith. :)
