The eighth collection of poems from British poet Alan Morrison. These poems are passports to a twisted conservative notion of salvation through benefit & welfare sanction; a series of verse-missives from the frontline of the war against the poor and its spirit-stripping weapons of food banks, poor doors, and homeless spikes.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Taking its title from the brown envelopes that strike fear into benefit-claimants and the biblical Rapture, Alan Morrisons eighth collection imagines these letters as passports to a twisted Tory notion of salvation through benefit sanction. Tan Raptures is a series of verse-missives from the frontline of the war against the poor and its spirit-stripping weapons of food banks, poor doors and homeless spikes. Its a peoples history, from Dale Farm and the firebombing of the Freedom Bookshop to Troika-shackled Athens, featuring the Bryant & May Matchgirls, the International Brigades, the Runnymede Diggers, Los Indignados, Gerrard Winstanley, Joe Hill, Wal Hannington, Conrad Noel and Christopher Caudwell. The title poem is a Catholic Socialist polemic in opposition to self-proclaimed Roman Catholic Iain Duncan Smiths despotic six year grip at the DWP. A book of poems about living in Austerity Britain.
