Firmly rooted in Rotherham, this inventive, gutsy and vibrant anthology brings together the work of local poets from Flux's Spread The Word community and nearby.
From ESOL classrooms to stinky fish markets, pit battles to the roar of the terraces, this beautiful collection of poetry makes space for tenderness, grit, tenacity and surprise in ways only Rotherham can. Above all, it reminds us that poetry and all its voices belongs to everyone, inviting us to keep listening, keep sharing, and, of course, keep spreading the word.
