Semmens' new collection is a loosely structured sequence of surreal fantasies in which famous figures from (mostly) the past - sometimes singly, sometimes in unlikely pairings - make incongruous, anachronistic appearances in modern settings and situations.
The Meanwhile Sites is a book about development sites and their relationships with people, and the oppositions of marginality against mainstream, renewability against finitude, utility against intangible value, and the changing forms of physical, cultural and psychological landscapes in a post-industrial age.
Formally-innovative, comic, surreal and deeply poignant - Evans's poetry is a restless delight as he tackles almost anything: lost invoices, hearing aids, fruit flies, migration, bin lorries, road signs and love's strains and pleasures.
The Death Poems: Songs, Visons, Meditations explores death in a range of forms - celebratory, visionary and contemplatively.
Sing Me Down From the Dark explores the highs and lows of a ten-year sojourn in Japan, two international marriages, a homecoming, and the struggles of cross-cultural relationships. It is full of light and dark, as if the writer herself has been 'caught off guard' in the making of these poems.
Tackling the loss of the poet's mother - as well as themes of motherhood, birth, death and marriage - this poignant collection explores how we grieve and remember those we love.
