If something sinister and otherworldly really did happen to them.If the Dragon is still out there, and intends to keep the past buried.

A spirited and stirring return to the poets boyhood and the town that made him This autobiographical collection candidly explores Daljit Nagras experiences growing up from the sixties to the eighties in the predominantly white working-class town of Yiewsley, close to Heathrow airport in Outer London. As Britain transitions from a post-war manufacturing economy to the Thatcher years and the computer age, we see a young boy navigating childhood friendships and mishaps. The poems bring to life a bustling house filled with relatives from India, who had arrived, legally or otherwise, in the UK: devout realists already, and always, knuckled into work. They also offer powerful insight into the makings of the writer: the messy English at home fusing with Bollywood ballads, Top of the Pops and hymns at school, to develop a voice entirely his own.[Nagras poems] do that rare thing in poetry of stretching language, making it do things it hasnt done before. Its multiculturalism at its most complex, individual and real.Scotland on SundayA book of guts and heart, an honest, often polemical collection that posits worn-on-the-sleeve, personal and public questions without implying simple answers.TLS, on British Museum
