Caroline Lucas served as the UK's first Green Party MP. Elected to parliament in 2010, she was also leader of the Green Party of England and Wales from 2008 to 2012 and co-leader from 2016 to 2018. She was previously a Member of the European Parliament for ten years. She studied for a PhD in Elizabethan literature, an experience which sparked her interest in the politics of nature, identity and Englishness.
This is not just an inspiring, nuanced and deeply literate book, but that rarest of things – a necessary one. * JONATHAN COE, author of Bourneville * 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 *
