Book description
A brand new brilliant collection from the ground-breaking poet,
Benjamin Zephaniah.
His verse explores people and places, cultures, nationalities and
tribes. Includes poems about Inuits, Celts, the history of Britain,
Maories, the Dalai Lama, the North and South Poles, and much more - a
real tour of the world.
Benjamin Zephaniah was born in Birmingham and then spent some of his
early years in Jamaica. He came to London when he was 22 and his first
book of poetry for adults was published soon after. He appears regularly
on TV and radio, and at literary festivals, and has also taken part in
plays and films. He is very active in his local community and his
writing goes hand in hand with his interest in politics.
