About the Book

Englishness has been hijacked by the right. This book will help take it back. THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'A visionary book' Philip Pullman 'Essential and magnificent' George Monbiot 'Deft and wonderfully poetic' Grace Blakeley The Right have hijacked Englishness. Can it be reclaimed? Today, the only people who dare speak of Englishness are cheerleaders for Brexit, exceptionalism and imperial nostalgia. But there is another England, hiding in plain sight, which is dramatically more inclusive and forward looking. Here, Caroline Lucas delves deep into England's literary history to sketch out alternative stories of who we are - ones that we can all embrace to build a greener, fairer future. 'Not just an inspiring, nuanced and deeply literate book, but that rarest of things - a necessary one.' Jonathan Coe, author of Bourneville

About the Author :

She holds a PhD in English literature.

Review :
This is not just an inspiring, nuanced and deeply literate book, but that rarest of things – a necessary one. I love Caroline Lucas taking her own independent-minded journey into finding a better political future for England through its mythical and literary past. 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. 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? Deft and wonderfully poetic . . . A fascinating and thoughtful reflection on one of the most fraught and important issues of our time. 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. 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. 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. 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. A progressive vision of the country’s literary and cultural history from the trailblazing MP . . . [Offers] much needed crumbs of hope for the future.
