NEW PAMPHLETS

Melos are very pleased to announce the publication of new pamphlets of poetry for the autumn of 2019:


Fifteen Beads, by Michèle Roberts, comprises fifteen poems each composed of fifty words and interlinked to form a continuously flowing work of great lyrical beauty. As the late and much lamented Helen Dunmore wrote of Michèle Roberts: A magnificent writer.


The Lincolnshire Rising, by Andrew McCulloch, is a successor volume to his much acclaimed collection, Gradual. It combines original poems and some more of the translations for which this poet has been widely praised. Rachel Hadas wrote: These beautiful translations...command an easy, natural flow which find its counterpart in McCulloch's own poems: both voices are musical and full of wonder.


And, just to remind you of The Quiet Life, by Ian Harrow, published earlier this year and gaining excellent reviews.
