Jessica J Lee & Jason Allen-Paisant: Taking Root

Join two writers who have turned their pens towards nature and belonging. In Jhalak Prize-longlisted Dispersals, Jessica J Lee examines how plants and people come to belong in a place, considering how tightly we’re entwined with Earth’s flora. And T.S. Eliot Prize-winner Jason Allen-Paisant’s The Possibility of Tenderness is a lyrical personal history of migration, exploring how the plants and people of home offer different ways of living in a new country. Chaired by Hannah Lavery.
