Feral is the third poetry collection by award-winning writer, poet, and lyricist Jamie Thrasivoulou. These poems extract the mental turmoil and unrest of POST-COVID Britain and lay the results on the page. Tracing themes of displacement, poverty, depression, loss, and self-sabotage, these narratives employ a sharp socio-political awareness, and are laced with satire and brutality. By far his most succinct work to date, the reader is placed as observer amidst existential crises. In defiance of the subjects the poems battle, there’s an unbreakable hope; a snarling refusal to comply, ever-present throughout. In the author’s own words, “Feral is a survival document.”

‘Jamie Thrasivoulou is by far one of the most exciting, arresting and socially charged voices to emerge from out the current wave of British poetry. His experiences lend themselves to a grander, wider, narrative often perceived to be demanding answers while never fully wavering from their place of origin. Jamie is a poet of the people and the equality they strive for.’ – Anthony Anaxagorou
