Lilith Speaks by Clare Procter
In these confident and accomplished poems, Clare Proctor explores and gives voice to the experiences of women, particularly those constrained by their context, whether historical, or through art, myth or individual circumstance. They move from the particular to the more general in considering ideas around the body, death, motherhood and family.
Still Life by Rebecca Bilkau
With their idiomatic and conversational voice, Rebecca Bilkau’s poems on mortality and grief look the inevitable in the eye and manage a celebration of life even as it accommodates death. Her language is lively and engaging as she considers loss, retrieval, survival and simple speculation with compassion, wit and a grounded wisdom.
Subcutaneous by Maria Isakova-Bennett
In spare and delicately-balanced language Maria Isakova-Bennett’s poems about family, loss and the effects of being silenced address her grandfather’s enforced migration to England, the secrecy he lived with and its effects on subsequent generations.
