Spectrum

The concept of identity – be it class, gender, sexuality, national, institutional, or anything else we define ourselves by – has gone through radical change over the past half-century, and the idea of definition by binary oppositions is no longer as relevant as it once was. Spectrum is a poetry anthology that seeks to amplify marginalised voices, and to celebrate the great diversity and rich variation in the identities of people from around the world and from a huge cross-section of walks of life. Featuring poetry by: Rayne Affonso, Samah Alnuaimi, Caroline Am Bergris, Jessica Appleby, Steve Baggs, Cathy Bryant, Jane Burn, Rachel Burns, Susan Cartwright-Smith, Nwuguru Chidiebere Sullivan, Arinze Chiemenam, Abhainn Connolly, Jennifer Cousins, Martins Deep, Kat Dixon, Elle Echendu, Deborah Finding, Anita Goveas, Suman Gujral, Oz Hardwick, Roisín Harkin, Ellie Herda-Grimwood, Peter Hill, Sam Honeybone, Overcomer Ibiteye, LJ Ireton, Tim Kiely, Matt Leonard, Naomi Madlock, Jazz McCoull, Dianne McPhelim, Jenny Mitchell, Raina Muriithi, Neshma, Carolann North, Jessica Oakwood, Ewa Gerald Onyebuchi, Chiwenite Onyekwelu, Ivy Raff, Cameron Rew, Mia Jasmine Rhodes, Kerry Ryan, Daphne Sampson, Nnadi Samuel, Lana Silver, Jess Skyleson, Thea Smiley, Alyson Smith, Fadairo Tesleem, Sophie Laura Waters, Ozzy Welch, Frankie Whiting, Dave Wynne-Jones, Damon Young and Lucy Zhang.
