Savage Acres by Keith Payne Brian Bilston as Jean Genet said it

as Jean Genet said it must be

finding everywhere they look detail worthy of notice

"A fierce poetic and deeply honest voice about what it means to be a Black woman living in the diaspora … An activist speaking directly on the modern colonial mindset of the UK … A stunning debut collection

‘Maria Stadnicka’s pieces from The Unmoving are exceptionally accomplished

hope and peace to all
