Description

John Agard's poignant and thought-provoking Windrush Child tells the story of a young child's journey across the ocean to an unknown horizon, full of hope. With stunning lyricism, internationally renowned poet John Agard recalls the experiences of thousands of West Indian children and families who travelled to Britain as part of the Windrush Generation between 1948 and 1971.

This powerful and moving book explores themes of identity, belonging and the complexities of migration, offering a unique perspective on this significant period in history. With its thoughtful and evocative language, it is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the experiences of those who were part of the Windrush Generation.
