"... a thriving community of poets whose words inspire us to go out into the world, to look closely, think generously and feel deeply - and above all to communicate openly." (From Bidisha's foreword)

Slightly confusing title as this is last year's book, not the one for the prizes awarded a week or so ago.

It's unfortunate that my favourite of these poems was the opening one (setting me up for disappointment) but this collection isn't bad at all!

Gorgeous poem!
"Day, with Hawk" by Vahni Capildeo
