Synopsis

In response to surges of violent British nationalism and political paranoia around borders, and to related social and ethical crises, JT Welsch and Ágnes Lehóczky have assembled an anthology to mark the vital contribution of non-UK-born writers to this country s poetry culture. Wretched Strangers brings together innovative writing from around the globe, celebrating the irreducible diversity such work brings to British poetry. While documenting the challenges faced by writers from elsewhere, these pieces offer hopeful re-conceptions of shared foreignness as Lila Matsumoto describes it, and the peculiar state of exiled human, in Fawzi Karim s words.

The book is published by Boiler House Press to commemorate the anniversary of the June 2016 EU Referendum and in solidarity through struggles ongoing and to come. Proceeds will be donated to charities fighting for the rights of refugees.
