Folkish is a trickster figure masquerading as a poetry collection. Full of ghosts, worms, saints, and Northern English folklore, Kym Deyn’s debut is playful, spirited and absolutely furious – moving between the alive, the legendary and the haunted in endlessly inventive forms.
About the Author: Kym Deyn is a poet and writer of weird fiction who moonlights variously as a tarot reader, a librarian, and the editor of The Braag CIC, a publisher based in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. Their pamphlets include Dionysia and Unfurl. They have been widely published in anthologies and journals for their poetry and prose, including Butcher’s Dog, 14 Poems and Strange Horizons. They’ve been shortlisted for awards including The Bridport Prize and recently came third in the 2025 Oxford Poetry Prize. Folkish is their debut collection.
