ON COMMON GROUND
by Hugh Lupton

Seized. Divided. Fenced. Owned.

Master wordsmith, Hugh Lupton, tells the outrageous story of the enclosure of the English countryside during the 18th and 19th Century, through the eyes of mad genius poet, John Clare.

Provocative, political and seditious - enter a landscape of exploitation, where boundaries between language and place, love and lunacy, home and exile are bloodied and muddied by turn.
