This book reads to get you from A to B via somewhere else, each lasting a commute. It contains four stories, which explore how we move through the world. Alecia McKenzie is a Commonwealth Prize winning writer from Jamaica published by Peepal Tree Press in Leeds, her African heroine surfaces as an illegal domestic in Belgium. The Malawian poet Jack Mapanje lives in York where he is reclaiming the time he lost in the political prisons of Hastings Banda by writing his prison diary, from which we have some of the first published extracts. The characters in the stories by MY Alam and Sumeia Ali operate in the cities of northern England, caught between the exaggerated world of gangster bling and the mundane necessities of going straight - catching the train, holding down the day job. They explore how sometimes, we live between worlds.
