In November 2018, Speaking Volumes presented a Breaking Ground event in Berlin, Germany, with performances by four contemporary British writers of colour. Francesca Beard, Rishi Dastidar, Caleb Femi and Xiaolu Guo created multimedia performances to showcase the inventiveness of our literary presentations.
To accompany their visit we commissioned translations of a selection of their work into German as a further resource, along with the Breaking Ground booklet, to publishers and literature professionals.
Read their poetry in English and German here.
