    Nine Arches Press Primers Volume Four

    Out of stock

    Book SynopsisIn 2018, the Poetry School and Nine Arches Press launched their nationwide Primers scheme for a fourth time, in search of exciting new voices in poetry, with Kim Moore 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: Lewis Buxton, Amelia Loulli and Victoria Richards. Primers: Volume Four now collects together a showcase from each of the three new poets It is an irresistible invitation to step out of ourselves and our bodies and drop your expectations on the dancefloor, to take the plunge on the rollercoaster-ride of grief, motherhood and new life, and to meet desire in all its outrageous, dazzling and joyous forms. Secrets, disclosures, changed names and brilliant disguises make for a vivid, adventurous and often deeply moving selection of new work from some of poetry’s most talented emerging voices.Praise for Primers: Volume Four“All three poets are rooted in the territory of the body and the expectations placed on it by society though their concerns range widely – from an examination of toxic masculinity to female desire and motherhood. Their approach to language and form is varied, but what is consistent is their ability as poets to invite the reader to see the world in a different way.” – Kim Moore

  • The Heart's Granary: Poetry and Prose from 50

    Enitharmon Press The Heart's Granary: Poetry and Prose from 50

    Book SynopsisThe Heart’s Granary marks the 50th anniversary of Enitharmon Press. Compiled by Lawrence Sail, it is a personal selection from all Enitharmon’s publications. It also conveys the Press’s striking range and coherence – international in reach, while true to its Blakean vision. Including prose as well as poems, with more than 120 contributors, and with full colour illustrations by some of the many well-known artists who represent another facet of Enitharmon’s achievements, the anthology creates new contexts for writers, translators and artists, from Nobel Prize winners to emerging talents. The Heart’s Granary is memorable not only on its own account, but as a touchstone of the journeys undertaken by writers in a world that has changed radically since Enitharmon’s beginnings in 1967. Befittingly, this momentous publication marks the end of a much cherished poetry list.

In this collection, poems are emailed and texted back and forth, pursuing evolving themes of love, desire, heartbreak, drugs, sex, and the general shittyness of the past year... as well as the rewards and excitements of youth. The poems are spontaneous, sometimes rough-hewn, blunt, frank, and even startling - as well as often hilarious or moving. Witty doodles and zany illustrations enhance the charm. A book of poetry like no other.

    Book SynopsisHappenstance Press ‘This is the internet generation, and the references in these poems pull with abandon from a huge territory. If the general thrust is to embrace, the poems have in common, the courage to sing out and explore.’ -- Sally Festing, Heppenstance Press‘There’s always talk of ‘saving’ poetry; it’s fine, becomes deeper and wider each year. Don’t believe me? Open up this anthology and read words cajoled into new shapes so they might move or disturb you (and sometimes both) with all their bright surprises.’ -- Martin Figura, Saboteur Best Spoken Word Award winner 2013 ‘Here is a book of poetic tangents, setting words and worlds at a tangent to each other. Words are not to be taken for granted, of course. Nor are they. This is the way the future comes flying at you. At a tangent. And the voices fitting in the space there, like the stones in a fruit.’ -- George Szirtes, T S Eliot Prize winner 2004, 2009‘I view the UEA MA creative writing anthology as a barometer of what’s going on in the poetry world, and this year’s collection does not disappoint. Poems range from the lyrical to the experimental and each voice is exciting and unique. I look forward to hearing more from these poets in the future.’ -- Julia Webb, Forward Prize Shortlist 2017This year's anthology contains work from 12 exciting new voices: Dario Biagini, Fern Broome Richards, Paul Frederik Carlsen, David Charles Gill, Rich Law, Naomi Madlock, S.Z. Mason, Molly Ellen Pearson, Jake Reynolds, Olivia Walwyn, Arron Westbrook, and E.F. Willis, with a foreword by Paul Mills and introduction from Sophie Robinson.

    Book SynopsisFrom both revered, established writers and exciting contemporary poets, the work in this anthology offers a broad picture of Māori poetry written in English. The encounter between Māori writers and the English language has been one of creativity and innovation, with poets choosing to use the language of the coloniser as a tool for their own ends, expressing the beauty and robustness of the Māori spirit when confronted with difference and dislocation. There are laments for koro (elders), hopes for mokopuna (grandchildren); celebrations of the land and anger at its abuse; retellings of myth and reclamations of history. In all its variety, and on every conceivable subject, witness the vitality and intensity of the Māori poetic voice.

  • Thali Katori: An Anthology of Scottish South

    Luath Press Ltd Thali Katori: An Anthology of Scottish South

    Book SynopsisThali Katori brings together two words that celebrate difference, acknowledge the need for the sensitive appreciation of difference, the virtues of complementarity and the nourishment that poetry and the arts, as vitally as savoury and sweet dishes, dal and other vegetables, gives us, to keep us alive, to refuse, in Hugh MacDiarmid’s phrase, ‘a life deprived of its salt.’Thali Katori is a feast of many flavours. Thali, literally means a plate on which a selection of many dishes is served. Katori signifies the bowls which accompany the thali. Together, the dishes are all different, but they complement each other, bringing out each other’s flavours and unique identities.Featuring poems and extracts from writers such as Sir Walter Scott, Vikram Seth and Hugh MacDiarmid, Thali Katori is a collection of poetry and prose that celebrates the difference and the diversity of the Indian sub-continent and Scotland. Through a diverse collection of poetry that explores the unique history of the relationship between India and Scotland and the ways in which it has affected the lives of many since, both Scottish and Indian writers alike are brought together in this anthology to create a feast of appreciation for the diversity of culture and identity of the two nations.Thali Katori provides a platform for a multitude of voices… if one is searching for a synergy then it surely must be that of the experience of the Diaspora and the formation of attachments to the Motherland. – Amrit KhanTrade ReviewThis lovely anthology is full of great poetry and beauty from Sir Walter Scott to modern lovely poets, only a few of whom I have quoted here, and it will make a wonderful gift. - Aline Dobbie, IndiaGBnews.com

    Book SynopsisThe Highlands and Islands of Scotland experienced massive changes during the nineteenth century. Economic restructuring, introducing sheep and deer and encouraging clearance and eviction, is the best known change, but it was by no means the only one. Transport and communication improved massively, and the region was exposed to an ever-widening range of external influences. Many Highlanders reached out to the wider world, as soldiers, sailors and emigrants. Others remained steadfastly on their crofts, and maintained vigorous Gaelic communities, while those who left their homeland also created Gaelic communities in the Scottish Lowlands or overseas. In different contexts, at home and abroad, they reflected on the vicissitudes of their lives, and no small number expressed themselves eloquently in song and verse. This is the first general anthology of nineteenth-century Gaelic verse to be published since 1879. It covers all the main types of poetry produced in Gaelic during the nineteenth century. Thirteen themes are represented – among them homeland, clearance, emigration, transport, life in Lowland cities, love, war and protest. Theis anthology thus offers a fresh look at the poetic creativity of the nineteenth century, and the way in which song and verse were refashioned to meet the challenges of the time. As the poets respond to 'the wiles of the world', their output covers the full sweep of human emotions, from sadness to rollicking humour, from nostalgia to robust protest and great hope for the future. The poems are reproduced with English translations. These will allow the non-Gaelic reader to sample their stylistic sparkle, which has been seriously neglected until now.

    Book Synopsis"These poems will transport you far. The work here combs an expanse of place and experience. Complex subjects are explored with maturity and many poems push confidently at the boundaries of form. There is an energy to the work, displaying advanced, original thinking. The writing students at the University of East Anglia have proved a fearlessness in their ability to dissect identity, origin, trauma, love, objects, language.

In a time where the community of UEA’s Creative Writing course is scattered across the globe, this collective project was made possible by the School for Literature, Drama & Creative Writing and UEA Publishing Project, Ltd. As our peers continue to find a sphere of catharsis and escape in writing, we hope reading our work offers a similar experience.
