The Underlook
None
The Odds
The Odds examines how we are all juggling with fate, luck and chance, both good and bad -- and sometimes grab the wrong end of the lighted torch. Peopled with odd characters: psychic bookies, vicious magpies, a modern day Lady MacBeth, some miracle frogs, and the owner of a dark laboratory; the poems remain rooted in friendship, family and sense of how important it is to make the most of what we have.

The Doorstop Book
As long as there have been doors there have been doorstops. Early on they may have been a convenient rock or piece of furniture, but in the 19th and early 20th centuries, doorstops were manufactured as decorative items for the home. Generally cast in iron, they are avidly sought after by today's collectors. Though mass produced, they were usually painted by hand and so each has become a unique treasure, appreciated both for its shape and the "folk art" quality of its finish. This wonderful new book brings together over 1,000 doorstops photographed in full color and organized by categories: flowers, birds, animals, wagons, Native Americans, people, houses & windmills, and nautical. It includes an informative history of doorstops, valuable information for collectors, histories and marks of the foundries that made them and more. Gathered from various wonderful collections, this book represents some of the finest doorstops ever produced and gives the reader a broad, encyclopedic view of the hobby. Values are included.
Blast Off!

There are riddles and clerihews and rhyming couplets, short poems, long poems and everything in between.
Tea with Cardamom
Warda Yassin's poems cross borders and cultures, combining the family storytelling of a home in Somalia with a childhood in a UK city. These vibrant, vivid poems contain so many lives: the colour, the laughter and the heartache.
Cast

A Commonplace
A Commonplace is a both a collection of poems - by Jonathan Davidson and thirteen others - and a conversation about how poetry is made and experienced. There are also poems from the 17th century and from Kyiv and Lisbon and Finland and Nicaragua. A stepping off point for any reader who wants to experience poetry as a lived art-form.
