This booklet was produced by Commonword in partnership with RAPAR (Refugee and Asylum Participatory Action Research) and CAN (Community Arts Northwest) and published in 2010. People who have been made destitute by the British asylum system share their stories, musings and experiences of life both in the UK and back home. Some pieces are fictionalised or published under pseudonyms to protect the identity of contributors who at the time had —and may still have— precarious immigration status.
