A conversation with the Indian-born Manx poet, Usha Kishore, about her poetry, its themes and concerns, and her latest book of poetry, 'Immigrant,' published in March 2018.
As one of the leading poets working in the Isle of Man today, this third collection of poetry by Usha Kishore is an important event in the literature of the Isle of Man.
The book investigates the political, cultural and linguistic spaces inhabited by first-generation immigrants to Britain. It is a postcolonial work experimenting in language and structure, highlighting a quest for identity and home.

More about the book and the work of Usha Kishore can be found on her website:

The publication of the book was supported through a grant awarded by Culture Vannin.
