Her Red Songs Chris Murray
Paperback: Poetry 86 pages
ISBN: 9781913598495
Her Red Songs expresses a profound understanding of, and connectedness with the environment, the poems evoking a delicate, yet often searing, contemplation of the place of the individual within the natural world. The poet’s astonishing command of language, the dexterity of her use of punctuation and space, the precision of her craft, all meld in the creation of these beautiful, haunting poems that touch the reader at their deepest level.
Back From Away Damien B. Donnelly
Paperback: Poetry 86 pages
ISBN: 9781913598532
Back From Away is a bold, courageous, often poignant evocation of the many ways in which the poet’s literal journeys – both leaving, and returning, home – are accompanied by a voyage into the self. With wit and humour, sometimes seasoned with a dash of sadness, the collection explores the challenges of childhood and young adulthood, encompassing adoption, emerging sexuality, relationships. Back From Away brims with insight into the individual’s quest for authenticity in a complex world.
Highland Boundary Fault Emma McKervey
Paperback: Poetry 72 pages
ISBN: 9781913598563
"McKervey is sharp as winter. Her poems of Scottish folklore, myth, family and strange 
beasts, came at me like howling winds, lifting me up and down the highlands, islands, coasts, caves, lochs and bogs of history and imagination. This is a tonic of a book - rattling, cleansing, energising. Over and over again, Highland Boundary Fault transforms the ordinary past into the sphere of the magical and the darkly medicinal.”
