Fingerprints and Other Traces, Flax005

Fingerprints and Other Traces - Although the five poets whose work is sampled here could hardly write more differently from each other, they do have something in common. All engage with surprising and often challenging subject matter – and invent ways of writing to handle it.

Featuring Mark Carson, Maya Chowdhry, Martyn Halsall, Emma McGordon, Deborah Swift

Although the work sampled here could hardly write more differently from each other, they do have something in common. All engage with surprising and often challenging subject matter – moon landings, Rembrandt, offshore engineering, clothes-swopping and playground stories - and invent ways of writing to handle it. 

There is a love of words, of inventing new ones, of reconfiguring old ones, and of playing with their context. This enthusiasm and zest is what holds the anthology together and is why we selected these writers for your to enjoy.
