Full Description
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.
