Hetty
This is the story of a young woman’s dilemma in World War II. How can she and those she loves survive the problems they face? Our story opens as Hetty prepares for Will’s return from a Japanese prisoner-of-war camp. She has learnt that Will has been tortured and disfigured in the camp and it was only the thought of her and his daughter, Mary, conceived on their wedding night, which kept him alive. However, two years earlier, Hetty thought that her hasty marriage to Will had ended when she got the telegram “Missing, presumed dead!” Now he was coming home. How can she tell him about her new baby, Dorothy? Staying with Will’s parents in Somerset, a young asthmatic teacher, David, is kind to Hetty and her young child, Mary, and they fall in love. But then there is the problem of what happened when they went blackberrying. How on earth can these damaged people find a new way to live? What will the outcome be?

Pilgrimage Poems
We have all been on a journey through the horrors and limitations and isolations and quarantines of Covid recently, which have led us on a type of pilgrimage of endurance. You'll find a poem here called Those Pandemic Words, many of which gained new meanings when we were daily exhorted to follow the rules. However, most of these poems try to find ways not only through our present problems, but also through all the difficulties life throws at us as we try to find a pathway through them that makes sense.
Lives of the Poets
Poetry. This new book by Alan Halsey comprises 191 poems of the lives of British poets . Each "Life" is a poem distilled in a few highly concentrated lines and a "life" may be revealed in a tiny concatenation of phrase and fragment.

The result is a must read book by one of the best living British poets. LIVES OF THE POETS is gorgeously produced by Five Seasons. Halsey is the publisher of West House Books and the author of many books available from SPD, the most recent of which is MARGINALIEN also by Five Seasons.
