"The Dead Are Always Laughing At Us is a collaboration between Dominic Hoey and designer Trudi Hewitt. The poems were mostly written during lock-down as a way to try and stay sane while the world lost its collective mind. "Accessibility has shaped the way I write and perform. Ive always resisted the idea that poetry should be a puzzle you need a 50k education to unlock. Early on I knew I wanted this to be the kind of poetry collection anyone could pick up and be drawn into immediately. With that in mind it was really important to add a visual element to the text."."--Publishers website.
