“This is poetry driven by a subliminal urge to transcend the oppression of the day-to-day… a voice to listen to as it grows stronger and stronger.”

Aldburgh Poetry Festival: First Collection Prize 1996
Shortlisted for T.S. Eliot Prize 1996
“I cannot think there can have been many better first collections than this… one imbued with so strong a sense of respect for its own heroines and heroes. Wright knows where he lives and knows his own people. His ego is regularly lowered to let in the truth of both. He is accountable to both. And there lies his strength: humility. It is a quality rare in current poetry and Glyn Wright has it in abundance.”
Tim Liardet: POETRY WALES.
“A brand new voice. Fresh, accessible, humane, witty… elegaic and lyrical.”
Liz Lochhead, PBS BULLETIN

Shortlisted for the Forward Prize Best First Collection 1998 and for the 1998 Aldeburgh Poetry Festival’s First Collection Prize.
“A fine and moving book, a walk along the cliff edge… not comfortable but somehow comforting in the end.”
ADRIAN MITCHELL
“Lyrical poems of intense experience, severance, love and loss. Jean Sprackland writes with a tingling emotional honesty… an extremely assured first collection.”

Peter Street
Out of the Fire

£4.99 incl P&P
“It’s impossible to disassociate Peter Street’s poetry from the backcloth of his disability since he only began writing after his accident. But disability… merely drives him onward to greater achievement. Street’s writing reveals a positive language.”
JUDY MEEWEZEN
“Peter Street’s poetic perspectives are entirely refreshing: what they demonstrate is that home bred gumption and a curious yet innocent eye can produce genuine poetry.”
MATT SIMPSON
