About the Book

Supervillain Origin Story is a mischievous, seditious, and often incendiary exploration of trauma, loss, and erasure. Drawing strength and forging defiant triumph from the myriad provocations that could spin a soul into darkness, but somehow didn’t. Dove’s sophomore poetry collection weaves the ethereal from the light falling through cracked panes, taking inspiration from both personal experiences, and the political turmoil of the pandemic era, to create a collection that unsettles as it thrills. Echoing his educational psychologist’s advice to “Use your words” Rick Dove picks up diverse narrative strands touching on queer love, reconciling abusive relationships, and demanding social justice, Dove’s Supervillain Origin Story, demonstrates effectively just how disruptive words can be. No one was harmed in the creation of this collection...

About the Author :
Once voted “most likely to start the revolution” Rick is a queer and neurodivergent poet and activist from London. Born in the socialist utopia of Tooting at the end of Generation X, Rick has witnessed the effects of both increasing multiculturalism and gentrification on the capital, and as such, his work reflects on both societal and personal change and how these two cardinal forces interact as we grow. Dubbed "one to watch" by TS Eliot Prize winner Roger Robinson, Rick’s debut full collection, Tales From the Other Box, was published in August 2020 by Burning Eye and Rick was crowned the Hammer & Tongue UK Poetry Slam Champion 2021 at the Royal Albert Hall.

Review :
"The raw and effortless charisma of Dove is eye-opening, engrossing, and a complete command of the space. An utter pleasure to witness, and a privilege to share in their craft." - Dominic Corr (Corr Reviews, Loud Poets, Edinburgh, February 2022); "Powerful and uncompromising. If you have the opportunity go see and hear for yourselves." - Paul Temme (SproutSpoken Newquay); "Rick Dove featured at the Some-Antics Championship Slam 2021, and showed our slam contenders what they're aiming for. Scathing social commentary packing into heavy hitting poetry, delivered with passion." - Sammy Nour (Poet, Host and Promoter Some-Antics, Leicester); "One to watch" - Roger Robinson
