Measures of Expatriation |

This is Capildeo's seventh poetry collection. Published in January 2016 it went on to win the Forward Prize for best poetry collection (a prize Rankine had won last year). The book tackles the question of what it is of living between homes, places, traditions, ideas. Capildeo's style is varied, sometimes her poems sit right on the edge between poetry and short stories others are shorter and way less narrative driven.
