  • von Tim Atkins
    19,00 €

    Folklore is an ecstatic, dreamlike, and starkly realist poem sequence which extends, challenges, and continues the tradition of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, John Clare's visionary lyrics, the elegiac minimalism of AE Houseman, contemporary work of Geoffrey Hill, and linguistic innovation of Gertrude Stein and the language poets.

  • von Emily Hasler
    14,00 €

    Nature is an unavoidable force in these poems, providing space for meditations on our knowledge of self and other. How do our environments and pasts affect us? How did we become? These poems have their own organic forms, adapted to purpose. Precision and sentiment give this debut force and vitality.

  • von Dr Ian Gregson
    20,00 €

    Simon Armitage is one of the most compelling figures in contemporary literature, most conspicuously because of his charismatic style, but also because he has brought into poetry an irreverent, streetwise gusto and a kind of knowledge that often seems to come from outside poetry altogether.

  • von Juan Gelman
    21,00 €

    In To World, poems interrogate everything: nature, society, and thought itself, with no prejudice or even principle. We are before thought in its totality, unwilling to recognize borders - although never in a pure state, not falling into speculation, into thinking just for thinking's sake.

  • von Eleanor Rees

    Eleanor Rees's first collection, Andraste's Hair was shortlisted for Best First Collection in the 2007 Forward Prizes and for the 2008 Glen Dimplex Poetry Award. In her second full-length collection she continues to play the role of mythologiser and tale teller, moving away from her previous subject, the imagined city, into the magical psyches of changeling creatures.

  • von Dr Rachel Blau DuPlessis
    22,00 €

    von Srecko Kosovel
    20,00 €

    The first truly representative translation into English of a Central European poetic prodigy of the early twentieth century - the Slovenian Rimbaud - who died at the age of twenty-two but whose work bears comparison at once with Rilke, Ungaretti and Apollinaire, yet has its own distinctive and disarming iconoclastic vitality.

  • von Dr Susan Wicks
    20,00 €

    In the idyllic little village of Champfleury in south-west France, a web of lives interconnect, ready to unravel at the first touch.

  • von Katy Evans-Bush
    19,00 €

    In a world where everything has many possible explanations, Katy Evans-Bush examines love, loss, art and time itself under a variety of lenses. With humour and imagination she shows that the core of love remains the same while everything around it shapeshifts; and that an egg is never just an egg.

  • von Tom Chivers
    19,00 €

    How To Build A City is the Crashaw Prize-winning debut collection of poetry by Tom Chivers. It is a poetic interrogation of the twenty-first century urban experience, peopled by ghosts of London's past as well as the distinctly modern spectres of international terrorism, spam email and the credit crunch.

  • von Shaindel Beers
    19,00 €

    In The Children's War, Beers explores wars both literal and figurative, moving from global conflict to violence in mythology, domestic violence, and the war of disease ravaging the body.

  • von Terry Ann Thaxton
    19,00 €

    In the search to clarify the past-and thus transform the present, these poems turn over the shards of memory like the colored glass in a kaleidoscope, looking for an angle that will light up the great mystery of how we become and continue becoming who we are.

  • von Claire Trevien
    12,98 €

    Low-Tide Lottery is an introduction to the work of new poet Claire Trevien. This is an exuberant collection that rummages in the dirt and the rust of the everyday in search of beauty. It crackles with imagination, rubbing history together with the present to create unexpected, wild imagery.

  • von Mr Patrick Holland
    19,00 €

    The Source of the Sound traces the journeys of exiles in search of home. The collection is littered with the mise-en-scene of being lost: motel rooms, alcohol abuse, prostitution ... Yet, in each story there is some elemental contact with light and sound, the product of the characters' longing for simple, uncorrupted, reorienting signs.

  • - and Other Stories
    von Tom Vowler
    18,00 €

    The characters in this award-winning debut collection are very good at losing things: children, lovers, hope, the plot.

    19,00 €

    Plain spoken narrators as diverse as the America they inhabit - a pastor's son, the lonely night nurse and fat boy - are all ill at ease. Through road kill, September 11th and death row characters address their own bitter faults with noir-like melancholy, seeking redemption and absolution.

  • von David Lloyd
