Sean Howard Photography
A collection of images taken from over 10 countries, between 2015 and 2016. Images range from Iceland's Blue Lagoon, to the streets of New York's.
The Photographer's Last Picture
Sean Howard has written twenty poems inspired by photographs he discovered in a tattered copy of Collier's Photographic History of the European War (1916), although 'inspired' is hardly an adequate word for it. For Howard, each photograph introduces a cascade of associations and ideas about history and memory, about the events and implications of the First World War, and about our ongoing relationship with global conflict. The resulting poems have the economy and energy of a stark, high-contrast print, yet what is perhaps most striking about the book is the way Howard's prose passages chronicle the development of each photograph into a poem, like images slowly taking form in the chemistry of a darkroom tray. Following a method that is "precariously dependent on attentiveness, memory and chance encounters, personal and cultural associations followed as broadly, deeply, and unsystematically as possible," The Photographer's Last Picture assembles observation, description, quotation and amplification into an episodic text capable of transmitting a range of uncertain truths unavailable to conventional History.

The Gene Genie
DO YOU EVER ESCAPE EMOTIONAL SCARS HANDED DOWN BY YOUR PARENTS? CAN YOU CHANGE THE PATH OF DESTINY? It’s 1978. The winter of discontent brings Britain to its knees, the world’s first test tube baby is born...and the Sex Pistols play their last gig together. In a downbeat London suburb, teenager Emily Enderbie gives birth to twins, Annie and Bea. Separated at birth in shocking circumstances, the girls face very different futures. Raising vital questions about family, identity, pain and loss, the book explores the way the past stalks the present and the enduring heartache passed from one generation to the next.
The Way of the Mystics
"Sermons by Howard Thurman on mystics and mysticism"--
Incitements
Using techniques rooted in William Burroughs’ dada-inspired ‘cut-up’ method, Incitements takes the reader under the surface of three works of prose–Peter Sanger’s literary essay White Salt Mountain, Merritt Gibson’s guidebook Summer Nature Notes and Hans Fallada’s novel Every Man Dies Alone–exploring the poetic landscapes of their would-be unconscious. In the relentless imagistic flux, metaphoric excess and quantum poetics that results, Sean Howard uncovers new relationships and resonances in the prose and remixes them as poetry. As Merritt Gibson cautioned, when you turn over a rock "the animals that live on the undersurface are different from those that live on the uppersurface"; so too when we turn language’s stone.
Ghost Estates
Born of notes scrawled during a lunchtime lecture on 'Orpheus in Ireland, Seamus Heaney and the Poet's Task, and Other Matters,' Ghost Estates dives into the shadowy shatter zone where modernity meets myth and magic. Confronted by our collective implication in a complex web of societal injustice-from global conflicts, to the Irish Troubles, to the wholesale theft of aboriginal land that now constitutes 'Canada'-Sean Howard asks, What is the poet's task? These poems chart his serpentine quest, following association, incident, murmur and memory backward to the underworld that lurks beneath the façade of our High Estate.
