Beschreibung:
Linton Kwesi Johnson, born in 1952, is a Jamaican-born reggae poet who came to the UK in 1963. Joining the Black Panthers whilst still at school, he has been a life-long activist fighting for racial equality and social justice. In 2002, with Mi Revalueshanary Fren, he became the second living poet, and the only Black poet, to be published in the Penguin Modern Classics series. In 2023 he published Time Come, a selected anthology of prose written and performed across his decades-long career. He has recorded several albums, many on his own LKJ Records label, and has toured the globe. His awards include the 2020 PEN Pinter Prize from English PEN and, in 2021, being appointed an Honorary Doctor of Letters by the University of the West Indies. LKJ lives in Brixton in south London.
A dynamic selection of Linton Kwesi Johnson's most powerful prose writings, brought together for the first time.
