Jay Hulme, award-winning transgender poet, performer, educator and speaker
In his new poetry collection, Jay details his journey through faith and baptism during an unprecedented world-wide pandemic.
As he finds God in the ruined factories and polluted canals of his home city, Jonah is heckled over etymology, angels appear in tube stations, and Jesus sits atop a multi-story car park.
Cathedrals are trans, trans people are cathedrals, and amidst it all God reaches out to meet us exactly where we are.
Jay Hulme is an award-winning transgender poet, performer, educator and speaker. In late 2019, his fascination with exploring church buildings turned into a life-changing encounter with the God he had never believed in, and he was baptised in the Anglican church during the Covid Pandemic.
At this event Jay will be performing poems from his new book The Backwater Sermons and signed copies will be available to purchase on the night for the special price of £10.
