Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we’re loving and reviews from our contributors. Track Record by George The Poet explores the life of one of the UK’s much-loved poets and how his experiences influenced his work.
What We Say: “George The Poet meditates on his life, from being born to Ugandan parents at St Raphael’s Estate in Neasden to attending university, to becoming a musician. However, this is not just a simple memoir: the book reexamines colonialism and the forgotten history, exploring the war against Blackness while redefining a genre” — Olivia McCrea-Hedley
What They Say: ”There’s something special about it: the storytelling is unique, so exciting, so kinetic. Even though it’s in your ears, you feel like you’re walking along with George” — Candice Carty-Williams
