'An impressive cluster of names . . . Otherness is everywhere… and not just in the obvious differences of sex, race and class' New Statesman 'A powerful crowdfunded collection, as a group of writers explore the power of words to help us see the world as others see it' Irish Examiner 'Another superlative anthology from Unbound . . . an eclectic collection of pieces in which a diverse range of writers explore forms of otherness, and employ their ways with words to encourage us to see beyond ourselves at all times' The Bookseller 'A fascinating and challenging collection of work ... I cannot think of a time in living memory when this book would have been more urgent or more necessary' Sarah Perry, author of The Essex Serpent 'There are some books which are necessary and there are some which are enjoyable and heart wrenching and wonderful; this is all of these things. A book to give to everyone you love' Daisy Johnson, Man Booker shortlisted author of Everything Under ‘How do we live with the self that we’ve lost, or how do we dignify others with undue self-regard? These are some of the ambitious contemplations examined by the profound, witty and tender accounts in Others’ Daljit Nagra, Forward Prize-winning poet 'A rich, thought-provoking collection of writings against hate and in support of harmony; if ever there were a book for our unsettling times, Others is it’ Saba Salman 'Others is beautiful and enlightening. As it promised, it takes us into the lives, minds and stories of those whose experiences may well not be our own, it is a call for empathy, a call to understand each other, a call to listen' Robin Ince
