Tell Me About the Broken BonesJen Dunn's first collection of poems is a stark and, in places, raw read. Terse yet vivid lines examine a range of experiences in the life of a medical professional. The colours and sounds of an orthopaedic surgeon's daily interventions are contrasted with the mournful internal dialogue of psychoanalysis. This collection marks the emergence of a new voice with rich experience of trauma in its variant forms, and an impressive range of poetic instruments with which to investigate those experiences.

For All the Ghosts That Live In Me
Mark Vernon Thomas is a powerhouse of a poet. The evidence is apparent throughout this impressive collection, one which will certainly further enhance his reputation. What impresses is the wide range and variety of his work, imbued with a keen intelligence, bravura energy and playful inventiveness. Entertaining, thought
provoking, at times poignant and moving, the writing seamlessly veers from deployed humour and satire worthy of a stand-up comedian to poems of finely tuned lyricism.
This is a book that will make you sit up and pay attention.

Khartic the Graverobber
Spencer Mason is one of the most exciting and vibrant voices in poetry today, both on the page or on the stage.
The chosen words are mythical in their dealings with the secular. A poet that has something to say and who says it eloquently, with force, passion, bravery and an unerring human compassion under pressure. This new collection is a tour de force.
