Watermark, Flax 002

Watermark, Flax002

From a slaughteryard to Woolworths, St Francis to Shakespeare, the directness and intimacy of these poems is unnerving and agile, but always assured. Their resilience hints at the strength of human will, imagination and hope, offering the reader moments of cautious optimism and the gift of seeing the world anew.

Our second anthology features an eclectic selection of poets from Lancashire and Cumbria: David Borrott, Elizabeth Burns, Mark Griffiths, Pauline Keith and Cath Nichols

Each with their distinctive style and urgency, at least one of these poets will speak directly to you, but we are confident you will find resonance with at least one poem of each poet.
