A coming of age novel set against the backdrop of the 2011 London riots, When We Speak of Nothing launches a powerful new voice onto the literary stage. The fluid prose, peppered with contemporary slang, captures what it means to be young, black and queer in London. If grime music were a novel, it would be this.
The eight short stories in breach explore the refugee crisis through fiction. Dlo and Jan break into refrigerated trucks bound for the UK. Marjorie, a volunteer, is happy to mingle in the camp until her niece goes a step too far. Mariam lies to her mother back home. With humour, insight and empathy breach tackles an issue we can no longer ignore.
