Poetry & Strikes : Trade Union Narratives and Legacies Hardback

- Information
Description
Poetry & Strikes examines shifting representations of strike action in the work of six British poets from the 1970s to the present day.
It considers how these poets have come to contend with, and contribute to, narratives surrounding industrial disputes.
Through these conversations, the book attempts to question the way in which union narratives and legacies are constructed, and to investigate the power dynamics that underpin the presentation of labour histories.
The work of these poets helps us to understand how cultural memories have been formed, and makes it possible to see how these legacies may still be rewritten and reframed.
