Title: The Healing Next Time
Description: "The Healing Next Time" is Roy McFarlane's second poetry collection, recommended by the Poetry Book Society. In this timely and poignant work, McFarlane weaves together interwoven sequences that address institutional racism, deaths in custody, and a life story set against the backdrop of Birmingham at the turn of the millennium. The collection presents a powerful and resolute narrative through lyrical and multidimensional poems that confront the realities of racism and refuse to accept a whitewashed version of events.
