Description

 							 
  Award-winning poet and rapper Kate Tempest's electrifying debut novel takes us into the beating heart
of the capital in this multi-generational tale of drugs, desire and belonging.
  
  It gets into your bones.
You don't even realise it, until you're driving through it, watching all the things you've always known and leaving them
behind.
  
Young Londoners Becky, Harry and Leon are leaving town in a fourth-hand Ford Cortina with a
suitcase full of money. They are running from jealous boyfriends, dead-end jobs, violent maniacs and disgruntled drug
dealers, in the hope of escaping the restless tedium of life in south-east London – the place they have always
called home.
  
  As the story moves back in time, to before they had to leave, we see them torn between
confidence and self-loathing, between loneliness and desire, between desperate ambition and the terrifying prospect of
getting nothing done.
  
  In The Bricks that Built The Houses Kate Tempest explores contemporary city life
with a powerful moral microscope, giving us irresistible stories of hidden lives, and showing us how the best intentions
don't always lead to the right decisions.
  
  PRAISE
  “One of the leading wordsmiths of
our time … She turns her raw, observational skills in book form to the urban young growing up poor – sex,
drugs and increasing poverty amid the looming threat of gentrification” –  Jon Snow
  
 
“This is a bold, bright, beguiling novel; a lustrous pageant that dazzles and grips … An irresistible,
immersive snapshot of a changing world, delivered in woozy, staccato sentences … There's great pleasure to be
taken from Tempest's debut … She may well be unstoppable” –  Sunday Telegraph
  
 
“It's hard not to be blown away by Kate Tempest … A stirring, post-Dickensian lens trained on London's
lonely underbelly” –  Evening Standard
  
  “This book is almost everything I hoped
it would be. That is praise indeed, as I had high hopes ... As lyrical as it is gritty, and as devoted to (south-east)
London as it is to humanity, with all its foibles” –  New Statesman
  
  “Everything
Kate tempest does comes from the same gnawing desire to tell stories and change the world ... The book covers come-ups,
comedowns, gender identity, parents torn apart by activism and the brutal, beautiful face of survival against the odds
... Blistering ****” –  NME
  
  “Explosive … Fresh and vivid visions of a
familiar world … It recalls two other great, recent, experimental novels about being young: Jon McGregor's If
Nobody Speaks of Remarkable Things and Eimear McBride's A Girl Is a Half-Formed Thing. There's the same sense of daring
and linguistic inventiveness, the same feeling of language pushed to its limits … It fairly flies off the
page” –  Observer
  
  “A story of accidental adventure and loss in what feels like
London's boiling crucible of race, class and sexuality … This novel requires giving oneself over to its linguistic
world … It seems not just to describe a contemporary world but chart the migratory and class movements that has
led it to its current state” –  Andrew McMillan, Independent
  
  “Angst-ridden
lyricism captures the energy and loneliness of London life in this dizzying, genre-busting debut ... A remarkable piece
of writing, filled with verbal echoes and half-rhymes ... [One reads] for the pinpoint evocation of a milieu, its
texture and contours, all delivered with an intensely gathered and focused energy ...
Transformative” –  Guardian
  
  “Tempest is a worthy champion for a generation of
disillusioned youth … Her lyrical talent comes through” –  Sunday Times
  
 
“Tempest's words really soar from the grime of London … Smart, lyrical observations of city life won me over
… Tempest proves her witty, unique take on the world ****” –  Stylist
  
 
“Tempest is brilliant at capturing a distinctly contemporary state of mind, one hollowed out by drugs, ennui and
too many late nights, but also one bursting with frustrated feeling and desire. She has a poetic sensibility that feels
physically hewn from London's unloved corners ... Her writing has a startling, unmediated freshness reminiscent of Jack
Kerouac ... Full of beauty” –  Metro
  
  “Her characters sing … This is yet
another impressive achievement for Tempest, and one which leaves this Generation Xer understanding the woes of
millennials much better” –  Scotland on Sunday
  “A novel of discontentment, rage and good
intentions … Tempest sharpens her tongue to good effect” –  The Times
  
  “A
startling debut novel … The call-to-arms urgency with which she writes about the issues affecting her generation
– from social prejudice and unemployment to modern love and selfies – has earned her comparisons to the
Beat poets” –  Vogue
  
  “A whirlwind journey through modern city life ... You'll be
gripped from start to finish” –  Elle
  “Tempest portrays the lives of generations of
Londoners with an unflinching but sympathetic eye” –  Big Issue
  “A lager-stained,
rain-soaked love letter to London … Flows like a prose poem about drugs, dual carriageways and
desire” –  Red
  
  “A novel about youth and drugs and desire and dancers …
It's also about the changing face of the capital city. About gentrification and its costs” – 
Herald
