'Raise high the roofbeams, here comes a strong new presence in poetry...Kei Miller's is a voice we will hear much more of, for it speaks and sings with rare confidence and authority.' - Lorna Goodison

His first poetry collection, Kingdom of Empty Bellies, was published in March 2006 by Heaventree Press. He is also the editor of Carcanet's New Caribbean Poetry: An Anthology. He has been a visiting writer at York University in Canada, the Department of Library Services in the British Virgin Islands and a Vera Ruben Fellow at Yaddo, and is currently a writer-in-residence at the University of Iowa.
