The Very Now Poems
Climate change, the cost-of-living crisis; corporate greed, insomnia and mortality – yes, they all feature here, delicately interwoven with joyful poems celebrating love, family, food, basking lizards. And angels. The poems offer shared recognition; words that chime; satisfying rhymes; there’s the quantum poem, Dark Matter; What of Love and Motorbike tell of 21st Century love; Puddings is nothing but puddings, while The Comfort of Chocolate twins global warming with the pleasure of chocolate; Disclosure is a lighthearted take on The Ancient Mariner; there is the essential Cat poem, Cat and Mouse; an unwelcome sexual encounter is transmuted into dark humour in Pigeon Pecked. Poetry takes words, crumbles them and dunks them in the steaming hot tea (latte if you prefer) of the imagination. Enjoy!
The Devil Gets Lonely Too
The Devil Gets Lonely Too is the debut collection of poetry by Thomas R. Langton. Containing a wide range of themes, the book offers everything from hope to despair in an exploration of the darker side of life. ‘Wrap me in darkness sweetheart Darkness is my shroud The black calls to me’ Using a colloquial style, Thomas writes a succinct collection with poems about happiness, depression and the monotony of everyday life. This work explores more serious subject matter, including bringing light to deeper issues such as anxiety and suicide. Themes range from love and lust to happiness, heartache and depression, and explore issues such as anxiety and suicide. Thomas punctuates his poetry with references to biblical and historical figures to help illustrate his writing. A dark, twisted and at times sobering read, The Devil Gets Lonely Too takes inspiration from the work of Charles Bukowski and George Orwell, and from the music of Patti Smith. Thomas’ book stems from a lifelong passion for writing and a love of gritty literature. The book will appeal to fans of poetry, especially those that enjoy mature and honest literature.
The Most Hated Man in the World
A unique and poignant poetry collection which with raw honesty, seeks to tell the truth. The poems are insolent, funny and clever. They are also compassionate and kind. The collection wants its readers to think, to question, to be daring. There are poems about God and poems about man, there are poems about death and poems about truth, poems of sorrow, and poems about how we should live. It sneers at the pompous and self-important, at those who think they have an innate right to be in charge and who hate to be questioned. “So easy it would be to lose myself in despair of mankind,The vile and ceaseless hypocrite, with its mafias, gangsterGovernments and insufferable religions. Man was born inChains, captured in a social concrete that rarely softens.” – ‘When I Think Of Giving Up.'

The Loneliness of Being
The Loneliness of Being is as much a diary in verse form as it is a collection of poems; hence the chronological approach. Most of these poems I have written have been either under the influence of my favourite tipple: beer, or under the influence of existentialism, or both. As a student, I studied existentialism through the works of Sartre, Heidegger, Kierkegaard, Husserl, etc. This influence seems to have struck a deep chord with me as I have been left with the great desire to make sense of individual existence and how we deal with concepts such as choice and freedom; how we define our own meanings in this gorgeously rational and irrational universe we live in. The loneliness I refer to in...

Bachelors
These essays on nine women artists are framed by the question, born of feminism, "What evaluative criteria can be applied to women's art?" Since the 1970s Rosalind Krauss has been exploring the art of painters, sculptors, and photographers, examining the intersection of these artists concerns with the major currents of postwar visual culture: the question of the commodity, the status of the subject, issues of representation and abstraction, and the viability of individual media. These essays on nine women artists are framed by the question, born of feminism, "What evaluative criteria can be applied to women's art?" In the case of surrealism, in particular, some have claimed that surrealist w...
Mapping Society
From a rare map of yellow fever in eighteenth-century New York, to Charles Booth’s famous maps of poverty in nineteenth-century London, an Italian racial zoning map of early twentieth-century Asmara, to a map of wealth disparities in the banlieues of twenty-first-century Paris, Mapping Society traces the evolution of social cartography over the past two centuries. In this richly illustrated book, Laura Vaughan examines maps of ethnic or religious difference, poverty, and health inequalities, demonstrating how they not only serve as historical records of social enquiry, but also constitute inscriptions of social patterns that have been etched deeply on the surface of cities. The book covers...
