Truths Unsettled Two Poets’ Dialogue about History and Decolonisation,
single work
review
— Review of UnHistory 2022 selected work poetry ;'UnHistory: A poem cycle is the fifth and final volume of the dialogue in poetry between Kwame Dawes and John Kinsella, which began with Speak from Here to There (2016). At 508 pages it is also by far the largest instalment, bringing the project to 1,300 pages (or 725 poems) in total. Spanning two years from mid-2019, this is a de facto “chronicle of this season: / the pestilence, the riots, lies and great / truths unsettled”. Purnell’s History of the Second World War anthology, Netflix, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Lee “Scratch” Perry, the musical Hamilton, Derek Walcott and the teeth of the murdered Congolese prime minister Patrice Lumumba are just some of the grist for their maximalist poetic mill.'
