Coming to you live from Cape Town.

you start every new day with an inventory: a moth, a cape, a parachute, a coffin, a gun, the wall you built to mount the gun. On the Subject of Fallen Things is an addictive, Chekhovian metanarrative: phenomenological, absurd, and dripping with black humour. James Kearns’ speak

Happy Publication Day, James Kearns!

This is an astounding, original, mind-bending collection and I'm so excited for the world to read it and be bowled over by it.

Well done to the amazing Bad Betty Press who've taken so much care with the publication of this gorgeous book.

Isn't it beautiful? So, so proud of my husband (and still in awe of this phenomenal collection).

Just sneezed so hard my Bluetooth disconnected.

I promise I'm being 100% objective when I say my husband's a truly gifted poet and you should pre-order his collection (out in November, published by the pros at Bad Betty Press). It's an absolute joy to read.

On the Subject of Fallen Things | James Kearns

An addictive, Chekhovian metanarrative: phenomenological, absurd, and dripping with black humour. James Kearns’ speaker keeps company with Lazarus, an inept psychic, and a deceased superhero, but finds himself increasingly alone—lost in dialogue with mortality, both personal and anthropological.
