Arranged against surges in violent British nationalism and political panic around borders, and related/growing crises of culture and politics, this is an anthology to mark and celebrate the contribution of non-UK-born writers to this country's poetry culture, published on the 2nd anniversary of the UK's referendum on membership of the European Union.
