| Description: | Select Guide Rating One of Britain's best-known and most popular Caribbean poets traces a journey that moves from the coastal memories of a Guyana childhood to life in Britain and her adoptive Sussex landscape, turning the ordinary into something vivid and memorable, most notably in a sonnet-sequence which grew out of a recent return trip to Guyana. In Passport to Here and There Grace Nichols traces a journey that moves from the coastal memories of a Guyana childhood to life in Britain and her adoptive Sussex landscape. In these movingly redemptive and celebratory poems, she embraces connections and re-connections with the ability to turn the ordinary into something sensuous and memorable whether personal or public, contemporary or historical, most notably in a sonnet-sequence which grew out of a recent return trip to Guyana. Her ninth collection of adult poems and her fourth book with Bloodaxe, Passport to Here and There makes a significant contribution both to Caribbean and to British poetry. |
