Electric Dreams longlisted for Bread & Roses Award!
We’re thoroughly delighted that Heather Parry’s Inkling book, Electric Dreams: On Sex Robots and Failed Promises of Capitalism is longlisted for the Bread & Roses Award for radical publishing!
The Bread and Roses Award, presented by the Alliance of Radical Booksellers and administered by Lighthouse Bookshop, celebrates radical, accessible, politically left non-fiction that offers new perspectives and insights.
The books chosen this year cover a wide array of topics which are critical to the present political discussion in the UK. Among them are social inequality, police violence, digital innovation, health politics, climate change, marginalised histories of identity, feminism for all, and the experience of forced displacement and refuge.
Meera Ghanshamdas, Chair of Judges and co-director of Round Table Books, said: “This is my second year working on the Bread and Roses award, and it has been one of the most rewarding experiences that I have had while working in books. The titles chosen for this year by our tremendous panel of judges are at the forefront of radical politics conversation, approaching their subject matter with nuance and sensitivity.”
