Set in the beating heart of Family, Rojbin Arjen Yigit's poems are both a questioning of the past and a mirror searching for future possibilities. Grappling with loss, the futility of language and the distances of countries, these poems are an accumulation of the speaker's struggles and senses. Interconnecting locales across generations, they set out what it means to belong and what it means to mean.

I Sugar The Bones explores the crossing of borders between countries, people, languages, and the veil between life and death. Through the porosity of the US/Mexico border or through toxic relationships, through geopolitical violence or Freudian slippages, through ghostly glitches, translingualism and radio signal interferences, or the role of rivers across history, Adcock invests in the liminal spaces and layering of different realities. Through deceptively simple language, humour and a multi-layered lens through unexpected transpositions, the poet embraces the dubbing actors who once voiced the characters of The Simpsons for Latin America, along with a man imagined as a kitchen cabinet. Adcock interrogates the different stories surrounding borders, where things are a lot more interconnected than we tend to assume.

âEURœArji Manuelpillai hits the ground running with this debut and I freaking love it. His poems are funny, irreverent, hugely affecting. HeâEUR(TM)s fidgety, darts moment to moment âEUR" youâEUR(TM)ll rush after him, then suddenly find heâEUR(TM)s stopped, spun on his heel and youâEUR(TM)re face-to-face with his good-natured grin. Manuelpillai will dial up the volume just to whisper something damn beautiful beneath its surface. Every page of Mutton Rolls is tasty, and announces by increment a highly enjoyable new voice.âEUR? âEUR" Wayne Holloway-SmithâEURœThe poems in this brilliant, playful debut are multifarious though gratifyingly interlinked, addressing the subjects of Sri-Lankan British identity, masculinity, friendship, grief and love. The tone is sometimes satirical, but there is no hiding behind satire in Arji ManuelpillaiâEUR(TM)s work âEUR" great tenderness and beauty characterise these poems, and the poetâEUR(TM)s voice is completely original, entirely his own.âEUR? âEUR" Hannah Lowe

Contains Mild Peril is a book permeated by anxiety, not fatal threat, but the ambient manic hum of daily life. Precarity does something to us at the level of language; it shapes the ways we see and say. Our current climate ‿ political, environmental, economic ‿ engenders its own nervy music. These poems channel this collective apprehension in ways both deeply personal and instantly familiar. It is a collection that abounds in loss, in a sense of being lost, and in the gnawing fear of losing, yet its speakers address us with urgency. This is language in the throes of fighting back.
