Another England

I love Caroline Lucas taking her own independent-minded journey into finding a better political future for England through its mythical and literary past.

SAMIRA AHMED

Another England is a visionary book, and it’s also written in the clearest, plainest, and most eloquent prose . . . The author’s awareness of the complex fullness of our history is steeped in the language and the landscape, and she sees all the more clearly because of it. I was profoundly impressed.

PHILIP PULLMAN, author of His Dark Materials

Insightful, inspiring and highly readable, in this book Caroline Lucas invites us to ask ourselves a long overdue question: what type of country do we actually want to be?

KOJO KORAM, author of Uncommon Wealth

Deft and wonderfully poetic . . . A fascinating and thoughtful reflection on one of the most fraught and important issues of our time.

GRACE BLAKELEY, author of Vulture Capitalism

Timely, passionate and perceptive . . . Another England tells a new story about England and Englishness, and sets out the possibility for a progressive politics of land, place and nation. This is vital reading.

ROBERT MACFARLANE, author of Underland and The Lost Words

Caroline Lucas is a shining light of integrity and values-based politics . . . This is a clarion call to define England and Englishness as our common ground, and a grounding for a transformation of politics and society.

KATE PICKETT, co-author of The Spirit Level

An urgent, vital book for our fractured nation . . . By showing us the alternatives in our past, Caroline points to alternatives in our future . . . stories that must be heard more urgently than ever.

NICK HAYES, author of The Book of Trespass

Essential and magnificent. This book fills a yawning gap, showing how we can create the progressive and inclusive sense of Englishness this country so urgently needs.

GEORGE MONBIOT, author of Regenesis

A progressive vision of the country’s literary and cultural history from the trailblazing MP . . . [Offers] much needed crumbs of hope for the future.
