To Coventry by Sun by Jane Commane
Coventry was the first city to twin with another when it twinned with Volgograd in 1944. This project, commissioned for BBC Contains Strong Language (part of Coventry City of Culture 2021) explores the legacy by connecting 20 poets from Coventry and twin cities. To Coventry by Sun, brings together the poems and artwork commissioned.
