Nathaniel Lloyd Richards is tired - tired of living in a world that seeks to undermine his existence and tired of fighting for recognition in a society that too often elevates the mediocre at the cost of identifying true talent. After all, he has far too much to say.
 
Lighthouse, his debut collection of poetry, seeks to offer those who may be feeling just as tired and lost a beacon - a shining light to guide them through the storm of life and to the shores of safety. 
 
Exploring the joy of living, the exhaustive nature of surviving and the pressures foisted upon the Black community in the UK, Lighthouse offers a series of short vignettes, longer poetic rhetoric and cheeky personal accounts to give a unique insight into one man's effort to exist.
