ON LIBERTY: The Unplanned Year by Sharon Agard

On Liberty: The Unplanned Year is a collection of essays, poetic response, memories, and political meditations that moves across borders, histories, and states of mind. From the hills of Spain, a detention centre beneath the mountains of Greece, to the streets of London, it reflects on war, migration, capitalism, identity, the environment, and the meaning of freedom in the modern age. Blending prose poetry, philosophy, surreal imagery, and autobiographical reflection, the book explores displacement, power, exile, love, language, technology, the environment, and survival through an intimate yet confrontational voice. Lyrical, politically charged, and unapologetically original, On Liberty: The Unplanned Year offers a raw meditation on humanity, expression, and the uncertain future of shared existence.
