From the publisher
Featuring exclusive new work, Precious and Impossible gathers together over three decades of poetry from the T S Eliot Prize-winning Anthony Joseph.
With an introduction by Lauri Scheyer
For over three decades, Anthony Joseph’s work has explored the transnational vibrations of the African diaspora. Precious and Impossible brings together thirty years of Joseph’s poetry and lyrics – cementing his status as one of our greatest living poets and polymaths
'Joseph is both a faithful heir and an agnostic rebel; a Black poet haunted by Africa’s past as well as a bilingual post-modernist amused by the possibilities of the future' Ali Alizadeh
