Frontwards in a Backwards Movie
Ken Smith wanted to write a novel, so the story goes, but he couldn't make up his mind which novel, so he decided instead to write a chapter from each novel. But the chapters turned out to be paragraphs, and the paragraphs to be more like poems, and so this beautiful collection of twenty-one poetic fragments in prose came into existence.

The Grasshopper's Burden
A contemplation of the richness and beauty of the natural world is sometimes the only refuge from the ruthless march of progress where the powerful seize new opportunities to prey upon those least able to defend themselves.

A Certain Koslowski
The author confesses to having been influenced by Zbigniew Herbert and Flann O'Brien at the same time. Whatever their origin, they constitute a delightfully amusing collection, and the whole is enhanced by a series of apposite illustrations by Hartmut Eing.

Spectrum-Shift
Isobel Thrilling's work is characterised by free verse, an extreme economy of language and piercing moments of insight. There are poems here which deal uncompromisingly with illness, loss and family relationships. Others set the human in a wider evolutionary context. Some are the expression of the sheer joy of living. Whatever the subject, the dedication and craftsmanship of a highly individual artist are always very much to the fore.

Grandfather Best and the Protestant Work Ethic
In his third full-length collection, John Ward reflects upon a lifetime's personal history, and some of the lessons of history itself, in a book that is honest, compassionate, and full of an underlying sadness and pervading sense of unease.

Rattling the Handle
"Maybe for once a blurb is right: it talks about Pogson's poems confronting "the world in all its baffling inconsequentiality, absurdity and cruelty" and I can't really do better than that except to say that the poems are always full of humanity, and nowhere is Pogson sniggering at any of the predicaments we find ourselves in."
