The Apothecary of Flight is a heady flight into the art of poetry itself: its vital importance as a tool for expression; for understanding and translating the self; for articulating the sheer force and joy of poetry and the way, for a person with autism, it can hold and celebrate both the smallest and weightiest of life's experiences.
Small Moon Curve is an intimate poetry memoir exploring what it means to ease open to the restorative powers of love, faith and beauty following diagnosis and treatment for breast cancer. In this compelling testimony, the narrator discovers a surprising, powerful affinity with Tess of the DâEUR(TM)Urbervilles.
Popular Song makes us tap our feet to the rhythms of nostalgia, life on Mars, science fiction, lyric odyssey, humour and a fondness for the spirit-catching cassette tape in this highly inventive debut from Harry Man.
amuk sheds light on the devastating and ongoing effects of a single word's mistranslation, and emphasises what exists in opposition to such hostile histories and presents: hope, resistance, and joy.
Frieze by Olga Dermott-Bond is an astonishing and spellbinding debut poetry collection. Voices are recovered from canvas, from behind museum glass, from the pages of literature and the tales of Irish folklore, to explore what can be recaptured and what remains still out of reach.
Poetry Projects to Make and Do, edited by Deborah Alma (The Emergency Poet) is a 'how to' handbook of prompts, inspiration, ideas and essays designed to help aspiring and established poets find new ways to create poetry, and to take it out into the world through collaboration, projects, performances - and more.
Greekling,the much-anticipated debut poetry collection by Kostya Tsolakis, celebrates and commemorates damaged and rejected Greek bodies, be they of flesh and blood, made of marble, or natural bodies. In intertwining Greek culture, history and poetic influences with the contemporary queer experience, this collection is perceptive, lyrical, and deeply evocative of time and place. From an Athenian childhood to a closeted adolescence in the shadow of the AIDS epidemic, towards sexual self-discovery, maturity and freedom âEUR" Tsolakis charts the pursuit of unconditional happiness. These poems explore queer joy on dance floors, darkrooms and bedsits, but also the risks of crossing strangersâEUR(TM) thresholds or in encountering the violent machismo and hypermasculine expectations of the society you grow up in. And ever-present through the collection is Athens âEUR" the city the poet once turned his back on at eighteen but has come to love again. Moving between lament and celebration, Greekling reflects on a changing and often misrepresented country, the nature of motherlands and mother tongues; it is a voyage out âEUR" and a return.
'I can't face the big stuff so I comb the moors for a tiny yellow flower' - so begins Tormentil, the second poetry collection by Ian Humphreys. Set largely in the starkly beautiful West Yorkshire moorlands, these poems creep and bloom across geographies and time.
The Field in Winter, the third collection of poetry by David Clarke, winner of the Michael Marks Award, elegantly reflects on memory, time, and the very particular landscape of loss, in a calendar of poems, a 'charm of words' that track and loop through seasons of nature and living.
