Are you ready to meet the "Dead People on Holiday"? “The living”, they say, “are dead people on holiday”. Stephen Jackson’s 'Dead People on Holiday' is a ten-year testimony to one man’s living death, concluding in acceptance and the chance of a kind of rebirth. The poetry here pulls apart the melancholy of encroaching age and irredeemable failure, with a candour which for most of us has to be kept stifled, silent, perhaps barely even thought. Yet this is a book to surmount despair. If these are life’s ashes, from them a phoenix can rise. “Tight and life-affirming,” this poetry has been called; with a richness comparable to John Donne’s. Visually too the digital art of this book has been acclaimed as "stunning". ISBN 978-1-4500-3969-7
