Agnes Lehoczky
Biography of Agnes Lehoczky, currently Lecturer in Creative Writing at The University of Sheffield, previously Creative Writing Tutor at The University of Sheffield and Creative Writing Tutor at The University of Sheffield.
Rememberer
Agnes Lehoczky's second collection consists of five sequences of prose poems exploring memory, place and the death of a language. The poems are playful, intelligent and built in words that pulsate with energetic reference and invention."
Swimming Pool
Here text or poem is swimming pool, a pool in which language or thought-as-body glide through cultural and or phenomenological spaces; fluid places for being, thinking or even swimming in the world. It is polyglottal within English, let alone in relation to all the other tongues almost audible and to the maps of Europe that move under the text.
Poetry, the Geometry of the Living Substance
Poetry, the Geometry of the Living Substance is the first serious and sustained study in English of one of the most important Hungarian writers of the 20th century, the modernist poet Ágnes Nemes Nagy. The book captures the dual nature of poetry, as a discourse of the infinite and the abyssal, through close readings of her poetry and prose. These four essays draw parallels between Ágnes Nemes Nagy and other thinkers and theorists, such as Rilke, Celan, Heidegger, Derrida, Beckett and Blanchot. The monograph explores the poetic paradigm changes of Nemes Nagy in her whole work, including her collections of poems, essays on poetics and other posthumous miscellaneous fragments. Drawing indirect parallels between the fields of poetics and epistemology, the central focus of the book is the parergonal relation between language and the external world, the psyche and the objective environment, trauma and memory within the poetic space.
New Order

Sheffield Anthology
None
England
"Oxford Spires Academy is a small comprehensive school with 30 languages - and one special focus: poetry. In the last five years, its students have won every prize going. They have been celebrated in The Guardian ('The Very Quiet Foreign Girls Poetry Group'), and the subject of a Radio 3 documentary. In this unique anthology, their mentor and teacher prize-winning poet Kate Clanchy brings their poems together, and allowing readers to see why their work has caused such a stir. By turns raw and direct, funny and powerful, lyrical and heartbreaking, they document the pain of migration and the exhilaration of building a new land, an England of a thousand voices. This poetry is easy to read and hard to forget, as fresh, bright and present as the young migrants who produced it." [jaquette].
Not Many Love Poems
Transatlantic poems of love, loss, and celebration, this compilation features the work of an American poet based in the United Kingdom: Linda Chase. Inspired by paintings, gardening, memory, and love itself, this poetry reflects the author’s demotic style and underscores her voice: gentle, sharp, wry, honest, and curious. Written with wit and poignancy, it also presents some of Chase’s most harrowing and healing work, which resulted from her personal battle with cancer.
