Description:
The first work of non-fiction from an award-winning poet - a fierce reclamation of a link with the land, roaming from Jamaican hills to the woodlands of Leeds
The Possibility of Tenderness is a personal history narrated through the lens of the 'grung' and plants. It's also a people's history of the land, a family saga, an archival detective story through time. It's the migration tale of a young scholar who arrives in Britain from rural Jamaica to study at Oxford to achieve 'upward social mobility' and who now lives in Roundhay Leeds. Suddenly, amidst his journey of dreams and class aspiration, the plants and people of his native district, Coffee Grove, begin to offer different ways of living, alternative dreams, and the possibility of tenderness and the permission to roam England.
Marrying the local and the familial with global history and unfolding as a timely and immersive tale of land, environment, and the world of plants, The Possibility of Tenderness reveals how the history of a tiny rural village in a mountainous region of Jamaica is interlinked with that of modern Britain. And, also what that rural village can teach us about leisure, land ownership and reclamation today.
Mama, the author's grandmother, is a central protagonist of the story. Alongside her, herbalists, plant workers, farmers, and plant lovers help forge an intimate portrait of Coffee Grove, as do the plants themselves; fever grass, jointa, search mi heart, leaf of life, helping Allen-Paisant revise his sense of self and solidify a new understanding of his place in the world.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Color: Grey
Very satisfied with this room divider. The construction is sturdy and stable, easy to assemble, and stands firmly without extra support. It separates the space well and provides good privacy. The grey color looks stylish and neat, blending perfectly with the interior. The quality fully met my expectations.

Not so good as expected.
Color: Grey
Pretty poor quality partition. It should hold up to normal indoor ware as long as to don’t touch it. If it is used in a garage (as I did) it will collapse.when subjected to any kind of a breeze at all. I had to reinforce the partition with cross-wires for added support and it was still not enough.

Functional but not attractive
Color: Black, Color: Black
I purchased this to hide my cats liter boxes as he refuses to use them unless they are on the finished side of our basement which is also my kids play room. This functions as I’d expect. It isn’t great to look at but better than cat boxes. Overall it might make a good backdrop if needed. My only complaint is the hex/allen wrench doesn’t fit in the screws provided. If you don’t have an alternative tool that’s a smaller hex it will be annoying to put together.

Does the job!
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
This is a great screen to separate a space The base could be a bit sturdier, but for the price, it does the job! I recommend having a mallet for ease of assembly.

Good
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
The room divider seems to be a great quality. It is easy to assemble and set up. The stability of it is good. It doesn’t knock over easily. I use it when I have company over to divide a room to give them privacy. I might also use it on my patio to keep the wind And cold air while I sit and enjoy outside.
