'The Pity of War'
'The Pity of War' is a collection of poems from teachers around the world in response to the
war and Russian invasion of Ukraine. The poems come along with 20 tips and suggestions for how to use these poems to generate discussion, dialogue and learning in the English language classroom.
The collection was edited by Alan Maley and is available as ebook from Peacheypublications LTD. The price is very low in the hope that many people will be able to buy it (Pay what you want but the minimum is $3.99). All proceeds go to Ukraine humanitarian aid. The book is available here.
Note
On Tuesday 29th March Graham Stanley broadcast contributions from the
collection on his Teachers' Talk Radio Show. The recording of the show is here:
