As Sam encounters a final challenge that could kill or redeem him, the world appears to bleed into supernatural or mythic elements at the edges. Will the boy fly or fall? For anyone who has loved the works of Alan Garner, this is a deeply resonant, suspenseful, and magical book about childhood's darkness, strengths, and how lives may - or may not - escape unexpected nightmares.

Lana Del Rey seemed to appear fully-formed with her melancholy viral hit 'Video Games' - but the story started long before. In this anatomy, F.A. Mannan considers everything that has gone into the equation: the music, poetry and films but also the places and experiences that allow the songs to communicate despite the media circus around them.

Portuguese Sailor Boy is a fragmentary history of the bloodline of the Portuguese explorer, Vasco de Gamma. The bloodline motif plays out in a series of scenes of an unnamed contemporary relation-in symbolic forms like nautical maps and paint-by-numbers frigates. The narrative centers on the wayfaring of his character, which reveals a life of accidental achievement as well as unadvertised follies, and neither ascends nor descends to an end.

Literary Nonfiction. Art. LOCKDOWN, WITH CATS is a book of artwork created by Yeju Kwon with the hope of comforting contemporary people who deal with stress and anxiety. The theme of this book is centred around living in lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic and it aims to depict the tone of current daily life that we are all experiencing. Yeju aims to portray feelings of safety and peace in her drawings and she hopes that the use of cats in her drawings will make it easier for the reader to resonate with these feelings.

Lilly Millbank is the new Mother Nature, the newly married young mum must now figure out how to navigate the minefield of intrigue and backstabbing that is part and parcel with the smooth transitioning of the four seasons, the eight petulant Kings and Queens that lord over them and the all-pervading destructive force of humanity.

Fiction. Short Stories. MONTREAL IN 15 CHAPTERS is a compilation of stories taking place in Montreal, from the story of a translator in the Quebec government to the wanderings of a homeless person on the streets. Some of the spots mentioned now only exist in our memories, such as the Hawaiian Lounge, which was a bar for cross-dressers, or Parthenais Prison. Robert Markland Smith loves describing offbeat characters in off-the-wall unusual settings and situations. Sometimes the main character is a woman, as in "Peace that Passeth all Understanding." Mr. Smith has been writing since 1965 because he loves reading so much that he wants to give this pleasure to other people.

Poetry. SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES. WHAT? offers forty-plus vignettes, antic soundings in the ways of the world's maze and clue. Suspicions: hard to leave home without them. Circumstances: hard to escape them. Prose and poetry. Monologue and colloquy. The text steers between contemplating the demise of the vulture population in India and a video conference with Emily Dickinson, the sight of a Spanish pigeon parading itself as a parrot and the accusing sound of a crunched drink-can in the cinema. Its second half interrogates the implications of the word what. The what of what's what and the what of Hamlet's "To be or not to be."

On one beach, a young boy with his grandmother, at the turn of the tide, and on another beach, a grandfather with another young boy, when the tide begins to wane. In between it wanders through a lost and more hopeful Europe. The journey maps the loss of innocence and its replacement, by something that feels like understanding, and acceptance.

Charting a steady encroachment of shadows over a relationship, Wright engages with the most profound subjects - love and loss, madness, grief, illness - and attends to them with a finely-wrought poetic sensibility, producing a soundscape of nervous, almost fractious energy.

Poetry. We all need reassurance and inspiration to help us rise, some lyrical navigation for the heart, the head and the road. We need to gain immunity from inner and outer monsters in order that life can be successfully navigated. Judymay Murphy's debut collection takes this task seriously, the intention being to get the reader to experience better emotions, thoughts and environments in your life.

Poetry. Lucas Jacob's debut collection contains something for every reader. A trio of sonnets encompassing both the eighteenth-century missions and the twentieth-century dance halls of San Antonio; a section-long poem sequence that begins and ends in a prison yard in Stalin's gulag, and in between travels the world in the company of history's greatest agricultural botanist; a series of playful interrogations of the rhetoric of the forty-fifth President of the United States. These poems honor the need to find the words for experiences, thoughts, and feelings that exist at, or just beyond, the edge of language.

Poetry. Charles Wilkinson's THE GLAZIER'S CHOICE is the first substantial gathering of work by a writer who has published two previous short collections of poetry. Many of these pieces, written over a ten-year period, are characterised by a powerful sense of place, a consistently lyrical voice and a preoccupation with the liminal, numinous and half hidden. Wilkinson's often oblique narratives eschew the first person in favour of a verse that is open and various in its technical procedures, neither mainstream nor egregiously avant-garde. A melancholic strain is sometimes leavened by humour and playful use of form.

Poetry. Sue Hyon Bae's speakers exist in a state of displacement, expressing an ambivalent relationship to America, a love of its ideals and individuals as well as constant self-awareness of identity. The poems work on their own logic and adopt a deadpan tone on sexuality and the surreal. Through autobiography and persona, they question the validity of memories, and the study of perfection casts utopia as dystopia. TRUCE COUNTRY is a dazzling debut collection.

Book of heartfelt poems by a rising star of Instagram.

Poetry. One's personal ways to cope with anxiety, surviving the pains from sexual assault, and learning to deal with emotional and mental conflict are among those subject LA"N writes about in BLIZZARDS, SWORDS & TEARS. Wishing to empower others, encourage those who want to share their experiences, and ease the pain with those who struggle themselves are the hopes of this book. Sexual assault and mental struggle have for far too long been taboo subjects, but this book meets them head-on. It comes with tears, and it is reviving. BLIZZARDS, SWORDS & TEARS is a manifesto of the physical, the sexual, as well as the mental, trials and triumphs, of a young woman growing up in a young world with still much to learn.

Poetry. LGBTQIA Studies. In his third collection of poetry, Michael Brown takes us on a journey around the British coast visiting harbours, lighthouses and beaches. These are remote rural places transformed at night-time, away from the tourist season, where the poet explores climate change, coastal life and an ever-changing environment. Having recently adopted his son, we find here verse that reflects on the adoption process, school protests and childhood memories. We also hear stories from Grenfell Tower, the Irish border, and LGBT history month.

Poetry. In MEGAGLORATIONS, Wesley Franz insists on questioning what we have been doing on this planet of ours, and why, and how. Magic is to be found here; the concealed richness of ordinary life is here too. This is thought-provoking, mind-nudging verse for everyone to enjoy--and, maybe, to have some fun.

Poetry. Michael's poetic account of his journey through the effects of drug use and mental illness moves through stages of psychosis, wellness, care in the community and catharsis. There is a probing of the dark places with humour, grace and wisdom whilst reaching for the light. Poetically free and fearless, it follows its own inner rhythms--shaping text and space, to produce something quite remarkable. Humbling, compassionate, bold, this account reveals what it is to find a true moral compass through the darkest of times.

Poetry. DREAM-BEAUTY-PSYCHO is Todd Swift's latest trip to the world of desire and retro style, sometimes Lynchian in scope. Rhetorically wild at heart, these onrushing poems of religion, marriage, sex and phantasy establish Swift as one of the auteurs of contemporary English poetry. His 33-year-oeuvre is now, more than anything, its own cinematic universe of replicated tropes, fetishes, words and allusions. This could be a psychobiography dreamt up by Freud. Over it all looms the year 2016: the deaths of Bowie and Cohen, and Trump's rise but the crowning achievement here may be the poems celebrating recent books by Denise Riley and Derek Mahon, who each create a bridge of eloquence.

Poetry. Music. In Mandy Kahn's wonderfully inventive and gloriously lyrical second collection, Béla Bartók treks into remote villages to record folk songs on the world's first phonograph, a dying Gustav Mahler is greeted in heaven by Mozart, Igor Stravinsky receives a letter from a music student who wonders what rules are left to break, and Glenn Gould's chair defends its owner against claims of eccentricity. Kahn--who also works as an opera librettist--explores the challenges and exaltations of the creative life in brilliant, accessible poems that explode with curiosity, incisiveness, and awe--and that build into a lush celebration of music and making.

Poetry. THE SOUND WE MAKE OURSELVES collects Dooley's best work from over forty-five years of writing and publishing. Philip Gross of Poetry Review says of this book, "Nothing is out of bounds," and David Weatley says in the Times Literary Supplement that Dooley "makes an implicit case for the underground power of art."

Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. DECLASSIFIED, the new collection by Mariela Griffor, Chilean poet exiled to Sweden in the 1980s and now living in the American Midwest, is an enigmatic, at times erotic and often passionate exploration of relationships and politics, finding their shared tropes of deception, subterfuge, and even espionage. Ultimately, the book's focus is on love--between husbands and wives, friends, and a mother and her daughter--and how, in the most challenging of times, only the strongest bonds resist decay.

American Purgatory is a story of the working class, a dystopia set in a near-future United States marked by severe drought, herbicidal warfare, and a totalitarian climate of poverty. This purgatory is populated by those who believe if that they work hard enough, they will be set free.
