Title: Unashamed
Description: *Unashamed* traces the journey of World Poetry Slam Champion Harry Baker, from graduating with a maths degree and doubting whether poetry could be a real path, to becoming one of the nation’s most beloved poets with millions of views worldwide.

This collection brings together poems from his sold-out shows and new pieces written during a time when performing live was no longer an option. Whether exploring the playful depths of German compound words or having his prime number poems featured on TED.com, Harry eventually realised that maths has always been quietly woven into his poetry. Both disciplines, after all, are ways of making sense of the world, finding wonder in the everyday, and seeking meaningful connection.

Tackling everything from school bullying and climate change to a fondness for falafels and a 10,000th birthday, Harry’s passion for language and logic has carried him through marathons, a cancer diagnosis, and even the awkward fallout of possibly ruining his wife’s chances at a job in an ice cream shop. *Unashamed* is a collection full of heart, humour, and hope—a celebration of embracing every part of who you are.
