Liquid Amber Zoom Reading - Anne Elvey & EA Gleeson

Delicate and attuned to the numinous in the everyday, Intents traces the vibrational and unsayable across exchanges human and more-than-human in our interconnected world. With the humility characteristic of Elvey’s work, these poems weave a moving ethics of care, a chapel of attention and interbeing utterly necessary for our times.  Willo Drummond

The Deepest Thing: A Poetic Memoir by EA Gleeson

Writing about a disabled family member too often succumbs to clichés of tragedy or overcoming, or a presumptuous appropriation of their voice. The Deepest Thing is something else entirely. These translucent, searching poems live in the real world. With richly evocative imagery, they traverse decades of institutional and social prejudice to honour the improvised “dance” of a farming family and “the things that matter most” to the poet’s sister. Simply beautiful.  Andy Jackson
