Moving A Country

Format: Paperback

Condition: Very Good — £1.62
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

This debut collection of poetry and prose by Jade Amoli-Jackson tell stories of life growing up in rural Uganda, and then of the brutal conflict and violence that she and so many other people experienced. Her writing also provides an extraordinary insight into the process of seeking asylum in the UK and of making London her new home.Published with support from Platforma arts and refugees network, the collection has been put together and edited by Lucy Popescu, Jade Amoli-Jackson's mentor at the Write to Life project at Freedom From Torture."Most of the refugee stories we read about in the media are negative," says Lucy. "This wonderful collection of Jade's work directly challenges the negative press given to asylum seekers. Jade's courage shines through her writing and pays testament to the strength of the human spirit."
