The Itchy Sea
NEXT GENERATION POET 2014The Itchy Sea is an extraordinarily vivid collection of poems which are, above all, entertaining. The poems each have a kind of freshness and cut-through that will hold the reader’s attention in a world that’s full of dazzling distractions. They are a protest against the well-founded idea that poetry has to be dull. Their concerns are sex, death, the soul and a chocolate car. Beneath their shiny surfaces they are an intense but carefree therapy session for all our infantile ids.

Unsung
"Sculpture is a part of the space around it." This statement by Katarzyna Kobro reflects Mengham's sense of how he wants the poetic text to relate to the languages that surround it. The poems in this book reflect his ongoing preoccupation with Eastern Europe, the visual arts, ideas of prehistory and the process of composition itself.
Periplum and Other Poems, 1987-1992
Periplum and other poems brings together Peter Gizzi’s celebrated and influential first book, out of print for nearly a decade, with 60 pages of early and uncollected work, including the long poem “Music for Films.” This new edition functions as a collected poems of Gizzi’s work from 1987 to 1992. John Ashbery hailed Gizzi as “the most exciting poet to come along in quite a while.” The vibrancy and immediacy of Gizzi’s poems constitute 21st-century lyricism at its best, a richly complex music engaged with the crucial questions of and around contemporary culture. Michael Boughn wrote in the Poetry Project Newsletter that “Periplum reveals and shatters an unspeakably fragile world … emerging with a new knowing, a knowing that matters, as in matters of life and death.” His poems achieve a delicate balance of emotional and intellectual richness and the sense of poetry itself as a primary ground of human experience.
Designated Heartbeat
In this selection of shorter lyric poems, celebrated Language poet Bruce Andrews offers his charismatic blend of satire, wit and jouissance, creating a dizzying picture of modern America. In these poems Andrews explores a more intimate and domestic register, further reminding us of the astonishing range of this contemporary master.
The Migraine Hotel
This is another sensational collection from Luke Kennard packed with humour and his heady mix of crazy animistic narrators and surreal mise-en-scene. Taking off from his much celebrated second collection, The Harbour Beyond the Movie which was shortlisted for the 2007 Forward Prize for Poetry, this book will delight Kennard's readers and find him even more fans. Not to be missed.
A View of Buildings and Water
This title collects poems from the last half-decade, ranging from a monologuefrom an unmade film noir to a sonic sculpture where sense is driven by sound.
Recollections of Being
This new book by Nathaniel Tarn contains two series of "domestic poems"; a set of poems about New Mexico, and a set of lyrical poems on contemporary issues: philosophical, environmental and political. They range from simple to complex; use varying meters and page dispositions - but the voice, developed over 50 years is always uniquely recognizable.
