Talking Turkeys is an unconventional collection of straight-talking poems about heroes, revolutions, racism, love and animal rights, among other subjects, that will entice many new readers to poetry.
It was beloved poet Benjamin Zephaniah’s very first ground-breaking poetry collection for young people. Playful, clever and provocative – this is performance poetry on the page at its very best.
