Look We Have Coming To Dover. A collection of poems about the Britain written by Indians immigrants in the United Kingdom
Daljit Nagra
Faber 2007 London
Book
English
A collection of poems about the Britain where Indians came and settled featuring first generation characters along with second and third generation descendants. The poems encompass a range of attitudes reflecting the diversity within Nagra’s own community, other minority ethnic communities and the indigenous white population.
Nagra both challenges and evokes empathy by presenting attitudes, thoughts and feelings in a humorous yet enlightening way. He is a poet and English teacher born in England to traditional Sikh Punjabi parents who came to Britain in the late 1950’s.
The website (see link below) has an audio link to Nagra reading some of his poems.
