The Yearbook of English Studies for 2021 examines contemporary poetry from Britain and Ireland. Edited by Samuel Rogers, the volume contains fourteen essays exploring a range of poetry from 1980 and the present. Poetry continues to be a dynamic cultural force, though the past four decades have seen recurrent debates over whether its readership is shrinking or swelling. Certainly, the digital age has reshaped our relationship with media, altering both the publishing world and the economies of attention. Is poetry anachronistic, or has its condensed nature allowed it to thrive? Since we are still living it, contemporary poetry resists being surveyed from any detached perspective. This volume instead looks in depth at a range of poets, illustrating some diverse possibilities for poetic energy. A handful of senior poets are discussed, and the impact of their late work appraised. However, the dominant concern is with poets who began publishing since 1980. The volume is organized into four sections. 'Place, Identity, Environment' contains discussions of Tony Conran, Raman Mundair, Geoffrey Hill, and Karen McCarthy Woolf. Attention is paid to questions of nationhood, cultural identity and ethnicity, the ethics of attention, and the pressing matter of climate change. In the second section, 'Placing Language', Rhys Trimble, Lesley Harrison, and Tom Pickard are compared; Gaelic poetry is explored via Meg Bateman, Ruaraidh MacThòmais, Rody Gorman, and others; an analysis of Catherine Walsh further underlines the connections to place afforded by language. The third section, 'Ways of Looking Back', mediates between the contemporary and the past. This includes classical presences in Alice Oswald, parodic responses to Philip Larkin, and a consideration of the late Eavan Boland's legacy. A fourth section showcases some of poetry's 'Forms of Meaning'. Redell Olsen's cross media lineage is traced to Sophie Robinson, Nisha Ramayya, and others. Ted Hughes is revisited via the epistolary tradition. Literary collaboration is approached through Kelvin Corcoran, Alan Halsey, S. J. Fowler, Prudence Chamberlain, and Camilla Nelson. Finally, the complications of the contemporary lyric are examined in Zoë Skoulding's work.
If Kate Archer had known just what the invitation entailed, she most certainly would not have succumbed to the pleading of June Gladstone to spend a month's vacation at her father's luxurious farm.Kate had met June at school, and, although four years her senior, had gone out of her way to befriend the forlorn, unattractive, almost ugly girl in her early teens. Now, five years later, the invitation had appeared out of the blue, and Kate found herself a guest in a strange, isolated household of very bohemian ways, with a menacing undercurrent that made Kate very uneasy. Suddenly, things began to happen with astonishing rapidity. Clotilde, June's beautiful stepsister was kidnapped in very gruesome circumstances, and Kate had to play a nerve-racking part in delivering the ransom money.But two murders occurred before peace was finally restored in the Gladstone household, and the warped, twisted mind of a murderer was revealed.
DON'T LOOK BEHIND YOU!A madman has marked you for death.He follows you in the woods. He climbs the tree outside your window. He knocks on your door at midnight.He lusts for you. His raging desire will not rest until his lovely knife finds your delicious body. He has killed before.He will kill again, and it will be you.He takes the form of someone you know well. He lures you to a deserted building. He reveals himself. You are trapped. You flee down halls and twisting corridors, but he is behind you. You reach a door that will set you free...and it is locked!Daphne Gray cringed against the door. Above her she saw the gleam of a long knife poised to strike...
