Paperback. Condition: New. In scenarios which recall the mid-20th century craze for atomic monsters and stop-motion titans - as well as the existential fears they continue to embody - these ten sprawling poems and lyrical tales turn on terrible confrontations in modern metropolitan centres. The poets behind them are fighters, guardians - their lines and stanzas weapons of resistance. And while the beasts themselves may be somewhat figurative, somewhat fantastical, the danger they represent is sometimes very real indeed .

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In 2021, Nine Arches Press launched their nationwide Primers scheme for a sixth time, in search of exciting new voices in poetry, with Rishi Dastidar and Jane Commane as selecting editors. After reading through hundreds of anonymous entries, and narrowing down the choices from longlist to shortlist, three poets emerged as clear choices: Kym Deyn, Estelle Price and Fathima Zahra.Primers: Volume Six now brings together a showcase from each of the three poets. Startling, original and packed with flair, Deyn, Price and Zahra explore everything from magic and mourning, cross-examinations of power and patriarchy, and the intimate secrets and Parent cuts of growing up. These are poems of becoming and being, of difference and defiance, of other worlds, hard lessons and leaps of faith. Primers is proud to present these bold and dynamic poems from three of contemporary poetrys most exciting new voices.Praise for Primers: Volume SixThere is of course nothing more exciting in reading poetry than finding a voice new to you, and feeling that feeling where the brain says oh hello, what have we here?, as the skin responds with a tingle and your face starts smiling as you realise, there is something special in these words. That, roughly described, was our initial sensation on seeing the work of Kym Deyn, Estelle Price and Fathima Zahra. Each, in their unique ways, have that uncanny ability to recast what you thought you knew, as they make you look then look again at who we are, how we live, and what we might be.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Folkish is a trickster figure masquerading as a poetry collection. Full of ghosts, worms, saints, and Northern English folklore, Kym Deyns debut is playful, spirited and absolutely furious moving between the alive, the legendary, and the haunted in endlessly inventive forms.Between deep time and mischief, Deyns poetry hungers and sharpens its spells casting curses on bad landlords, exhaustion and poverty. These poems know intimately the coexistence of darkness and light, the mirrors slippery surface, and all that moves like magic in the depths of forest and root, containing multitudes a million sipping leaf-mouths, now quiet and peaty. Here, poetry is an act of wild transformation boundless and entirely distinctive, unafraid of reconfiguration and re-enchantment. Folkish is a trickster figure masquerading as a poetry collection.
