Hand-Me-Down Haircut offers a powerful and poignant exploration of masculinity, identity, and the working-class experience. Raised by a single mother on a council estate in Bedford, Stevie Kilgour's poetry delves deeply into the raw challenges of navigating life amidst economic struggle, societal expectations, and the complex dance of manhood. His voice emerges from the grit of southern England, speaking for those often overlooked, and his verses weave a narrative of resilience, survival, and introspection. This collection is a tribute to the courage required to remain true to oneself in a world that often misunderstands working-class masculinity.
