There is an Everyman Street in every town. It's anonymous, familiar and home-sweet-home for winners and losers, for the lost and the lucky, the stuck-in-a-rut and the just-passing-through, for the butcher, the baker and the trouble-maker. When Anwar opens a corner shop he sets in motion a series of tragic events which leave Everyman Street and its inhabitants changed forever. Everyman Street is a book of poems which is part soap-opera, part radio-play and part tragedy.
