    1968. Midlands MP Enoch Powell has something to say. Something he feels needs to be said. Something that could divide Britain forever.
1992. Rose Cruickshank, a black Oxford academic, wants answers. Powell's 'Rivers of Blood' speech, with its controversial words about immigration, shattered her childhood and now she is driven to confront both the man who made the speech and her own troubled identity. Will a meeting with Enoch resolve the conflicts that are tearing her – and the country – apart?
Chris Hannan's powerful play, What Shadows, is a searing look at how a bitterly divided country moves forward in the wake of a crisis. It premiered at Birmingham Repertory Theatre in 2016, in a production directed by Roxana Silbert and starring Ian McDiarmid as Enoch Powell.

    Michael O'Loughlin has earned an enduring reputation as one of Ireland's most important poets and writers. Poems 1980–2015 brings together and celebrates a poetic career spanning nearly four decades and includes new, previously unpublished poems. Exploring major themes such as identity, language, exile and return, O'Loughlin's work has an exceptionally strong international outlook and a fierce dedication to social and historical justice.
From the youthful poetry of his early Raven Arts collections which ushered in a new urban aesthetic in Irish poetry, to the poetic explorations of European history and identity, and the mature reflections of a masterful poet, this volume finally reveals the true extent of his unique and superbly crafted oeuvre, the work of one of the most original and vital voices in contemporary poetry.
