the pleasure of regret is a collection of mixed form texts that explore class and the ways it impacts upon ambition and education.
Using essayistic prose, stream-of-consciousness and a little bit of poetry, Scott Manley Hadley writes about class displacement, toxic relationships, chronic ill health, money, awkward teenage sex and being diagnosed with a personality disorder.
Scott was 'Highly Commended' in the Forward Prizes for Poetry 2019.
