Poetry. Caribbean Studies. "In this new volume of poems, Maggie Harris continues to examine the ever-evolving relationship between her childhood in Guyana and her adulthood in the UK. The resulting poems are elegant, passionate and flower-strewnworks that stride across timescales and landscapes displaying the selfhood of a poet who carries her child-country on her shoulders. From her home in Kent--itself a region that continues to be shaped by new arrivals, different dialects and, consequently, a mix of folklore--Maggie Harris's writing illuminates the past and the present"--John Rice. Maggie Harris won the Guyana prize for Literature for her first collection, Limbolands in 2000. Her new collection FROM BERBICE TO BROADSTAIRS reaffirms her position as a Caribbean woman poet located firmly in British soil.
