{"product_id":"british-museum-by-daljit-nagra","title":"British Museum by Daljit Nagra","description":"\u003cspan\u003eDaljit Nagra possesses one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary English poetry. British Museum is his third collection, following his electrifying version of the epic Ramayana, and marks a significant departure of style to something quieter, more contemplative and inquisitive, at times valedictory. His political edge has been honed in a series of meditations and reflections upon our heritage, our legacy, and the institutions that define them: the BBC, Hadrian's Wall, the Sikh gurdwaras of our towns, the British Museum of the title poem.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith compassion and charisma, Nagra explores the impact of the first wave of mass migration to our shores, the Arab Spring, the allure of extremism along with a series of personal poems about the pressures of growing up in a traditional community. British Museum is a book that asks profound questions of our ethics and responsibilities at a time of great challenge to our sense of national identity.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"The Week Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53888912523627,"sku":"blo1789955799855","price":10.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0987\/5383\/9467\/files\/british-museum-by-daljit-nagra_1.jpg?v=1789955803","url":"https:\/\/cattrees.shop\/products\/british-museum-by-daljit-nagra","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
