The Immigration Handbook

Více o knize

"Vividly detailed and emotionally powerful, The Immigration Handbook is as revealing as it is timely. Here we meet with the individual that the news stories only speak of as numbers. These are lives fraught with violence and tragedy that Caroline Smith has encounters in her work as the asylum caseworker for a London MP. We journey with them through the labyrinthine government bureaucracies they must navigate to survive. With clarity and integrity she lays before us stories of stoic resilience and humorous forbearance, of kindness to others and of joy in the midst of sorrow. These are poems that step out of the headlines and into our hearts."--Back cover.
