Synopsis "Handling Stolen Goods"
These poems draw on the lives of Black working-class people of Caribbean heritage in the semi-urban, semi-rural North East of England and the cultural mix they create. Their imagery reflects the hybrid nature of the place, in poems inhabited by dogs, crows, birds and foxes. The imagery of the crow is particularly striking, evoking images of the bird as symbol of the ominous, but also of tenacity and boldness. When the poet declares I want to be as black as the crows she does more than just embrace blackness in resistance to prejudice; she insists that the crow both represents and expresses a harsh kind of beauty.
