All The Houses I've Ever Lived In: Finding Home In A System That Fails Us by Kieran Yates

About the book: We have all had our share of mould, dodgy landlords and awkward house shares. 

But Kieran Yates has had more than most: by the age of twenty-five, she had lived in twenty different houses across the country.

In her coming-of-age memoir, she charts the heartbreaks and joys of a life spent searching for home. 

Sparkling with warmth and wit, All The Houses I've Ever Lived In (2024) is a story of finding beauty in our interiors, friendships in cramped flats, and home even in the most fragile circumstances. 

All the Houses I’ve Ever Lived In is at once a rallying cry for change and a love letter to home in all its forms.

She recently produced the BBC Radio 4 documentary "Estate Music", which explored the link between music, immigrant communities in the UK and social housing. All The Houses I've Ever Lived In is her first solo book.
