Description
What I Learned from Johnny Bevan is a powerful and thought-provoking modern epic by celebrated poet Luke Wright. Written in electrifying verse, this book tells the story of two friends who were once united by their passion for politics and social justice.
Their friendship was forged at university, where one person - Johnny Bevan - had a profound impact on another's life, shattering his comfortable middle-class bubble and sparking a desire to challenge the status quo. Twenty years later, as their youthful dreams have faded alongside the social change they once hoped for, Nick must confront the reality of what has happened to his friend.
This book is a searing examination of class, identity, and the struggle for meaning in a divided Britain. With wit, compassion, and precision, Luke Wright tackles the complexities of human relationships and the fragility of hope.
