Summary:  "Kate Tempest, a poet and rapper from south-east London, is one of the most exciting and innovative performers to have emerged in spoken-word poetry in many years. Her dramatic poem 'Brand new Ancients' won the prestigious Ted Hughes Prize for innovation in poetry. Her wholly unique blend of street poetry, rap and storytelling - combined with the spellbinding delivery of an open-air revivalist - has won her legions of followers all over the UK. Her remarkable stage presence is wholly audible in this poem, a spoken story written to be told with live music. 'Brand new Ancients' is the tale of two families and their intertwining lives, set against the background of the city and braided with classical myth. Here, Tempest shows how the old myths still live on in our everyday acts of violence, bravery, sacrifice and love - and that our lives make tales no less dramatic and powerful than those of the old gods. Kate Tempest is the UK's most exciting performance poet, currently serving up a storm in the UK hip-hop scene with her band Sound Of Rum. She is the author of the book, Everything Speaks In Its Own Way"--Provided by publisher.
