Mangoes and Bullets Summary

Mangoes and Bullets by John Agard

The themes of these poems - steelbands, stereotypes, weathermen and English girls eating mangoes - mirror the poet's personal itinerary from the Caribbean: a journey with consequences that are political as well as meteorological.

dis wuk does move and move from myth to moment, dis is a major wuk, a classical wuk, the instrument is finely tuned... * Frontline *
