A Virgin from a Chilly Decade

Michael Strunge

A Virgin from a Chilly Decade

Michael Strunge was one of the early voices of a poetic movement in Denmark which came to be known as the 'Poetry of the Eighties'. With the publication of his first collection in 1978 when he was only 20, he achieved almost instant recognition as a rebellious, angry poet who identified strongly with the poor and the socially sidelined.

Painting the Bamboo Tree

Gail Dendy

Painting the Bamboo Tree

In her mesmerising first collection, Gail Dendy unleashes a panoply of sound, smells, colours, rhythms from her native South Africa in a sequence of poems which, though dealing with the familiar, the intimate and the every-day, have a haunting strangeness.

...her poems have a delicate beauty. Her strength is her finesse and throughout her book the haunting understatement is a delight.

Joel Lane

The Edge of the Screen

A powerful and well-integrated collection of poems whose level tone and careful construction are all the more effective in conveying moments and incidents of desperation, pain, broken or uncertain relationships, hysterias just controlled... Not a book for your comfort - but there is much here that you will not easily forget. This is indeed poetry on the edge...

At the Skin Resort

James Sutherland-Smith

At the Skin Resort

James Sutherland-Smith's first full collection of poetry for almost twenty years draws on his perceptions of Eastern Europe in the years following the collapse of communism. In At the Skin Resort, he registers his own relationship with a world which has emerged not so much from pure nightmare, but from a fitful sleep where fearful dreams were succeeded by moments of clarity or utter blankness. In the cold light of day, memory of those past times is difficult to recapture with any sense of certainty.

The Wanderer's Prayer & The Travel Log of Sofa Joe

Andy Brown

The Wanderer's Prayer & The Travel Log of Sofa Joe

"These poems dazzle with their inventiveness of form and intoxicate with their vivid evocation of place. India comes alive all around us as Brown journeys down river, up mountain and into holy places. Sensual, contemplative and witty, this is travel poetry at its freshest. A delight." Henry Shukman
