Del 1 - Ten Poets
Ten Poets Defend Their Cities from Giant, Strange Beasts

In scenarios which recall the mid-20th century craze for atomic monsters and stop-motion titans – as well as the existential fears they continue to embody – these ten sprawling poems and lyrical tales turn on terrible confrontations in modern metropolitan centres. The poets behind them are fighters, guardians – their lines and stanzas weapons of resistance. And while the beasts themselves may be somewhat figurative, somewhat fantastical, the danger they represent is sometimes very real indeed ...

“One need not be a Chamber—to be Haunted—”When a poet turns to the subject of ghosts, it’s as much conjuration, or spectral evocation, as it is a story. We have gathered here ten in one slim book — ten possible summoning spells, primed to plant sounds and images deep in the ear and eye. Would you risk reading them aloud? Be careful — repetition is a kind of incantation. And the ghosts in these lyric tales are as angry as they are mournful as they are cold ...

Do poets make good detectives? Find out by following their feats of deduction, in this set of ten wildly varied accounts of mystery and murder. See them soften the tight lips of witnesses, squeeze the hearts of suspects, and wrestle with the muddledness of the inner life exposed. Watch for their subtle skill, but also for the all-too-human weaknesses and maddening contradictions that all honest poetry (and all good detective fiction) holds up, glintingly, to the light.

Poets are famous rakes, seductresses and time travellers, are they not? Cast all doubt from your mind by taking in these ten tantalising accounts of extremely inter-generational flirtation, whereby prominent persons from history are left weak-kneed and willing. But is that all there is to it? Or are our poets, as poets tend to be, up to much else besides mere dalliance? And will they change the past forever, or vanish into it?
Ten Poets Travel to the Dark Side of the Moon

Long before we went to the moon, we dreamt of going there, of what it would be like, in every medium from cinema to comic strip. Now, ten brave cosmonauts have resurrected that most rickety, most celestial of technologies – the lyric poem – as a means of reaching out as far as any of us has ever gone, in a space race from which some of them may never return. What will they find out there, amid the cold craters of the forbidding lunar crust?

"Behind the thin glass, the wind chanted not warnings but invitations... " They’re done with the land, its reckless rulers and its unjust laws! Now ten poets set sail under the bold black flag, as pirate queens, gentleman corsairs and salty dogs, to sing shanties most boisterously and comb for treasure. But what kind of treasure? And what varieties of creature await them in the deep? And what happens when the rum runs dry? Is the journey really what it seems to be? Did they ever, in fact, escape the shore?
Ten Poets Do Their Bit for the Secret Service

Poets make natural spies. Nondescript these days, they’re subtle and ever-watchful. Shifty in their skins, you might say. They are practised at fleeing and giving pursuit, and quick to reach for a pen (which may conceal a poison dart). Most importantly, they are experts at slipping the grip of rival operatives, at least one of whom is their own dark double.Ten Poets Do Their Bit for the Secret Service passes out the passports to ten such agents, sending them out on new missions to capture, conceal, communicate and (hopefully) come back alive…Featuring new work by: Alison Brackenbury, John Clegg, Michael Conley, Grace Ellis, Jac Harmon, Safa Maryam, Claire Orchard, Jess Richards, Robert Sheppard, Jeremy Wikeley

The goblin men are here again, with their shrill repeated cry: "Come buy, come buy!" And the pixies, the pooka, the gnomes and naiads, the boggarts and brownies – European folklore fizzes with tales of wicked and winsome creatures of the woods. And while in many ways their power has waned – what is there for them in the urban, post-industrial, rubbish-strewn present? – our susceptibility to it has not. Those who go in search risk never quite returning, or coming back changed...Ten Poets Lose Themselves in the Land of the Fae sees ten more poets spirited away to other worlds, returning to tell their tales of pixies, elves, faeries and goblins.Featuring new work by: Rowan Carteret, Tim Dooley, Kate Falvey, Alec Finlay, Naomi Foyle, Rosie Hart, Dominic Lyne, Wendy Manning, Yvonne Reddick, Natalie Shaw
