Yvette Henry Holt weaves a web of humour, confrontation, childhood, livelihood, reflection, sexuality, noir magic and emotional procrastination upon her global travels departing from Fitzroy North.

In Fitzroy North 3068 poet Yvette Henry Holt weaves a web of humour, confrontation, childhood, livelihood, reflection, sexuality, noir magic and emotional procrastination upon her global travels departing from Fitzroy North. This volume holds dialogue between therapist and a geographically wayward east-coast blackfella travelling from Central Australia to Melbourne's inner city to figure out what it's all about. For Henry Holt, the Big Bang Theory starts in 3068 under voluntary psychoanalysis, and the collection is awash with humour and equally as dry as the proverbial bone. Explore Henry Holt's pulsating psycho-geographical (Lady Yearling size 11) R.M. Williams boot-prints from Western Arrernte (Hermannsburg) to Westminster London and many whistlestops in between.

This dazzling collection of poetry comes alive with remarkable discoveries- circling Gertrude Street, vegan cafes, St. Georges Road, Sydney Road, the US, the UK, Greece, Canada - all in search of her very own true north. A kaleidoscopic collection of memories, temperament and Henry Holt's resolve to become neither patient nor client allows her poetry to plunge cold hard and fast into the depths of subconscious fortitude. Pop the kettle on, fasten your feet-belts, for this is a wild, wild ride.

About Amplify Bookstore

An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.

Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.

We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.

I loved how inclusive this space was, there were dyslexia friendly books and a space for books about queer love, a bit of something for everyone.
