About What we leave we carry | WritersMosaic

The series that tells the true-life stories of migration to the UK. It’s a chance to listen to Britain, to hear voices often drowned out by shrill anti-immigrant rhetoric. The series explores richly rewarding stories which complicate the very nature of what we consider British. Drawing from the podcast series, the oral history, What We Leave We Carry will be published by Jonathan Cape in 2026.
