Eric Ngalle Charles

Eric Ngalle Charles was born in the west African state of Cameroon, a country rich in mythology and natural beauty, but with a troubled colonial history. Arriving in Wales as a near-penniless migrant, after being trafficked to Russia by a criminal gang, he has remade his life as a poet/writer. He is a dazzling performer of his own work. His memoir I, Eric Ngalle was published by Parthian.

His debut poetry collection is Homelands.
