The Right have hijacked Englishness. Can it be reclaimed?

Today, the only people who dare speak of Englishness are cheerleaders for Brexit, exceptionalism and imperial nostalgia. But there is another England, hiding in plain sight, which is dramatically more inclusive and forward looking. Here, Caroline Lucas delves deep into England's literary history to sketch out alternative stories of who we are - ones that we can all embrace to build a greener, fairer future.

I loved every part of this book! Such an interesting historical look at how we've ended up where we are in our classist capitalist political system. With a sense of hope for how things could be different. It every UK school child learnt this rather than Kings & Queens and WWI & WWII, we could have such a different society! Well written, well informed and well narrated.

Everyone in the UK should read this!

This should be our new anthem, an England that really can be proud of itself and everyone living in our wondrously diverse and beautiful land. Sh e makes you feel as though we can do it, we can forgive we can appreciate we can solve our problems with a new English mindset.

Caroline’s eloquence knowledge and passion.

Very well written and read. I particularly enjoyed viewing through the lens of literature to bring together past and present. She makes a compelling argument.

Beautiful comparisons between literature and the current 'state of affairs'

The book opened my eyes to discomforts and contradictions that have lived with me since childhood in the 60s and why, despite those, I love this country.

Why I no longer fear and hate the flag.
