Trévien's poetry is moving, delicate and often darkly humorous. Our lady of tyres reimagines the world a new, as though laid bare and reconstructed, enchanted by little details, full of bottomless wonder.

In Honey Monster Bobby Parker uproots the confessional tradition and plants it on a British council estate. Masochistic, impolite and painfully uncomfortable, Parker writes in first person about his childhood, unafraid to show his scars, revelling in dark moments, as if bringing them to light will bring closure. Parker is a martyr to the page, writing as if nothing mattered more, with electricity in every phrase.

The Rise Of... Aaron Kent sees the working class Cornish poet writing with no filter, gnarly and mania driven hallucinations that tear into a traumatic incident in compelling fashion. The loosely punctuated long poem follows a wayward adolescent who begins by writing love letters to men he doesn't like and ends up evoking Dylan Thomas' mesmeric 'A refusal to morn...' before turning into the ocean. 'The Rise of' is essential reading, because as Kent knows 'After the first death, there is no other'
Hey Ho The White Swan By God I Am Thy Man is a culturally rich, beautifully furnished suite of poetry which recalls grand literary eccentrics like Beckett, Joyce and Gertrude Stein. Through classical scenes and moments of devilish intensity, Sam Quill writes with rare elegance and grace, in expectation of 'the plants his ashes sow in heaven.' A beguiling, often dazzling, first collection.
My Car Plays Tapes is a tale of captivating storytelling, focusing on John Osborne's life as a support worker and a nostalgic look at what happens when you listen to old tapes from the 1990s.
