Product Description

Product Description
A brand new brilliant collection from the ground-breaking poet, Benjamin Zephaniah. His verse explores people and places, cultures, nationalities and tribes. Includes poems about Inuits, Celts, the history of Britain, Maories, the Dalai Lama, the North and South Poles, and much more - a real tour of the world.

About the Author
Benjamin Zephaniah was born in Birmingham and then spent some of his early years in Jamaica. He came to London when he was 22 and his first book of poetry for adults was published soon after. He appears regularly on TV and radio, and at literary festivals, and has also taken part in plays and films. He is very active in his local community and his writing goes hand in hand with his interest in politics.

4.0 out of 5 stars excellent, light-hearted yet serious poetry, 17 Mar 2002
By A Customer
Benjamin Zephania came to my school is Bangkok, Thailand (Bangkok Patana School) and gave a 'poetry reading', although it was so much more. He showed us how his poems are light-hearted but at the same time serious. this book features many of those poems and is amazing to read. The poems are fantastic (and are really good to use if you do drama for GCSE or IB/A level).

I definatly reccomend this book.
