About the book

Doing what few writing about police dare to do, this brazen poetry anthology tells both sides of the story. Seeing police officers as complicated human beings in a position that is sometimes terrifying, sometimes rewarding, and often questionable, the diversity of voices featured here tell stories of fear, apprehension, love, brutality, death, hope, sorrow, joy and resolve. More relevant than ever as the controversy over armed police in the UK escalates, OFF THE CUFFS brings together the usually disparate voices of police, their prisoners and everyone in between.
