boar

By Tom Branfoot

boar sees Tom Branfoot layer our contemporary polycrisis with the events leading up to the Peasants' Revolt of 1381. Set in 14th-century Bradford, owned by John of Gaunt, boar illuminates the conditions of working-class existence that have remained fixed - under the guises of feudalism, capitalism, and neoliberalism - for centuries. Branfoot revivifies Middle English language and alliterative verse through the prism of contemporary experimental poetics with themes of land access, ecology, and class prevail.
