This is a fine collection of poetry and is a very good example of an individual voice. The Red Book brings together Ben Barton's collected small-press poems published from 1996 to 2006. Many have appeared in some of Britain's foremost 'little' magazines, including Scriptor, Roadworks and X Magazine. In the 40 poems in this book Barton explores many issues, from packing when moving house, My life packed away / in boxes / categorised. The thing / I said I would never do. to condemnation with a twist of alcohol and cigarettes, things I hate the most where he tells us you choke / garrotted year after year. Many of these poems are shorter snapshots, only a few lines long, which you find yourself wishing he had expanded and developed. There is the the feeling that he feels this himself and he writes in WORK IN PROGRESS My notebook is full / Of opening lines // but that is all they are / What they will remain / / incomplete / (for now) / like me.
Sanctified is the world's first poetry anthology featuring works exclusively by lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans Christians. "I am excited about this publication because LGBT Christians' voices need to be heard not only in church meetings, city councils, and courtrooms, but also in the literary arena. I believe poetry is an intimate, very revealing form of writing, and that this anthology speaks deeply to the experience of queer Christians in our world," says editor Justin Cannon."Sanctified is a powerful, poignant and diverse collection of ideas, thoughts, and especially emotions emanating from each poet's gentle, beautiful soul. These wonderfully crafted poems are a touching celebration of the Christian GLBT and Searching Community that reflect love, hope, dreams, and a deep, profound faith that inspires. Each poem is a spiritual gem that offers the reader a great deal to reflect on whether gay or straight." ~ Bishop Paul Peter Jesep
