What do we leave behind when we move to a new place and what do we carry with us, physically and emotionally, wherever we land?

Here are the voices of people who have come to Britain to make a new life: a Czech-Roma lawyer in Reading, an Iranian taxi driver in Shropshire, a Sierra Leonean actor in Northampton, a Romanian police officer in Edinburgh.

Colin Grant has travelled the country and listened to their stories foundational tales of arriving in a new land, along with rarely spoken stories of love and loss. Together, these accounts ask questions about assimilation, identity, belonging and the emotional cost of migration in twenty-first-century Britain.

Candid, profoundly human, sometimes funny and always moving, What We Leave We Carry is a chance to listen to Britain in all its richness and complexity.

'Oral history at its finest' Daily Mail 'Prickles with beautiful, comic and brutal details' Observer 'An extraordinary and compelling book' Daily Telegraph 'Utterly fascinating' New Statesman 'A hopeful, angry, tear-jerking read' Grazia 'Essential reading' Guardian

Arvustused

A powerful antidote to the false binaries of what does and doesn't make a British citizen. A real example of literature that meets the moment... Thankfully, voices like the ones gathered in What We Leave We Carry exist to offer an expansive clearer eyed path to understanding ourselves, others and the "othered" -- Raymond Antrobus A beautiful, inspiring book... What We Leave We Carry is a revealing, tender and sometimes funny portrait of Britain now. I loved it -- Maggie Gee
