Laura Taylor was born into a working-class family in the North of England and has challenged arbitrary forms of authority all her life. Now in her prime, she understands fully the potency of kindness in a world intent on creating division.

“One of the country’s finest poets. A spirit at once empathetic and revolutionary. Real words for heartbreaking times, a call to action!” - Attila the Stockbroker, poet & musician.

“A poetic battle cry. I’d like my teenage daughter to read these poems because, as women, we shouldn’t have to wait for middle age to claim the right to be ourselves.” - Alice Nutter, ex-Chumbawamba, screenwriter & playwright.

Fault lines is Laura Taylor’s second collection of poetry from Flapjack Press.
