Synopsis
Where the Paperwork Ends, True Belonging Begins
In Citizen Within: Poems of Migration, Identity, and Belonging, Namibian-born poet and British citizen Christi N. Warner delivers a powerful four-part meditation on the meaning of home. Following her striking debut collection, Ice-Cream and Politics, Warner deepens her exploration of the human experience by moving fluidly between mythic landscapes and intimate domestic realities.
Rooted in the belief that language holds a vital social function, this collection beautifully bridges the gap between the wide open African veld and the rainy streets of the UK.
Inside this collection, you will discover:
Voices of the Unseen: Lyrical tributes honoring the daily, unrecognized sacrifices of women, carers, and the everyday people who hold worlds together.
Journeys of Migration: A profound look at dual identity, blending cultural touchstones from Namibian vetkoek to British wellies.
Reflections on Lineage: Intimate verses exploring motherhood, ancestry, and the generations that pave the way.
Fierce Social Conscience: Poetry crafted to steady a room, spark difficult conversations, and return us to our shared humanity.
For Warner, a passport is merely the foundation of identity. Citizen Within reveals that true citizenship is a lived, daily practice of care, courage, and active responsibility to the communities we build together.
Perfect for readers of contemporary poetry and those navigating the complexities of diaspora, multicultural identity, and finding a place to call home.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Where does citizenship truly begin? For some, it starts exactly where the paperwork ends.In Citizen Within, Namibian author Christi N. Warner presents a powerful solo collection of reflective verse. As a distinct female immigrant voice in African diaspora literature, she explores the complex intersections of identity and belonging. This book is an intimate journey into the immigrant experience and migration, capturing the emotional realities of leaving one world to build another.Warner's poems about motherhood and family trace the invisible threads of lineage that connect continents, bridging her African heritage with her life in the United Kingdom. Standing out among Southern African poets and contemporary poetry by women, her work offers a deeply personal look at finding home and citizenship in a world often defined by rigid borders.Citizen Within is a testament to the daily practice of courage and care required to build a life in a new land. It is a must-read for anyone who has ever searched for their place in the world, beautifully articulating the ongoing, lived experience of true belonging.Praise for Citizen Within"A delicate and evocative collection. Citizenship appears here as a daily practice, enacted across bodies, relationships, and time. Citizen Within reveals that belonging is not a legal figure, but a disposition."Nando Sigona, Professor of International Migration and Forced Displacement"Citizen Within creates an inventive space for revisiting what we take for granted. It gets under the skin of the everyday and illuminates in fiery, cooling, expansive terms how individuals make up society."Dr Janet Remmington, Literary Scholar and Publisher"Heart-warming and unflinchingly real. The sentences are enriching, the stanzas alive with insecurity, fear, strength, courage, and community. Namibia is proud that she continues to carry its sun, warmth, and culture in her poetry."Yvonne Dausab, Former Minister of Justice, Republic of Namibia Where the paperwork ends, true belonging begins. In Citizen Within, British Namibian-born poet Christi N. Warner delivers a powerful four-part meditation on the meaning of home.
