'Songs for the Millions, and other poems' Summary
Songs for the Millions is a powerful collection of poems that give voice to the struggles of the working class in Victorian England. Stott's poems are full of passion and anger, but they are also tempered by a deep sense of compassion and hope. He writes about the poverty and famine that was rampant in his time, and the injustice and brutality that was inflicted on the working class by the police and their spies. But he also writes about the solidarity and resistance of the working class, and their determination to fight for a better life. Songs for the Millions is a powerful reminder of the struggles that working people have faced throughout history, and it is a testament to the power of poetry to give voice to the voiceless.Book Details
