Yva Alexandrova | Here to Stay: Eastern Europeans in Britain (signed by the author)

Price 27.90 лв.
  • Yva Alexandrova is a Bulgarian writer and international migration expert. She was Head of Policy and Campaigns for the charity Asylum Aid and an organiser for the People's Assembly campaign grop.

    What is remarkable about her book is the fact that she shares her personal experience, as well as that of other Eastern Europeans, living in the UK amongst prejudice and neglection. 

    Her critical, justifiably provocative and informed position gives voice to Eastern Europeans, who are struggling in a country that is simultaneously noticing and choosing to ignore their rights and inclusion. Under the added pressure of Brexit, more and more migrants lose their sense of place within the social, economic, and political picture in the UK - a nation that just so happens to indulge in a richness of cultures, but fails to acknowledge them as members of its society. 

    The purpose of this book, that targets the British as an audience in particular, is actually simple and all-inclusive in the most human sense: to ask the media, the locals, and the politicians in Great Britain to hear this assemblage of cultures, known as Eastern Europe, and to recognize its authenticity beyond the unjust and narrow bias. 

    "Provocative and well- informed, Alexandrova gives voice to people who are too often talked about rather than listened to. Pay attention." Daniel Trilling, author of Lights in the Distance

    "Alexandrova excoriates the British media, political elite and even the labour movement over their condescension and hostility to East European migration." - Paul Mason, author of How to Stop Facism
