Sayon Hughes, a young Black man from Bristol, dreams of a world far removed from the one in which he was raised. Far removed from the torn slips outside the bookie's, the burnt spoons and the crooked solutions his community embraces; most of all, removed from the Christianity of his uncaring parents and the prejudice of law-makers.

Eugene Onegin is the master work of the poet whom Russians regard as the fountainhead of their literature. Set in 1820s imperial Russia, Pushkin's novel in verse follows the emotions and destiny of three men - Onegin the bored fop, Lensky the minor elegiast, and a stylized Pushkin himself - and the fates and affections of three women - Tatyana the provincial beauty, her sister Olga, and Pushkin's mercurial Muse.

Losing someone casts us adrift in a lonely sea of grief, one that can be hard to navigate and is frequently overwhelming. Donna's wise words help us feel less alone on even the hardest of days, and bring comfort, hope and understanding. She also gently reminds us that love and grief are two sides of the same coin, and that great grief is born only of great love.

In poems that swerve and crackle with a rare music, Inua Ellams unleashes a full-throated assault on empire and its legacies of racism, injustice and toxic masculinity. At its heart, this book confronts the absolutism and 'foolish machismo' of hero culture from Perseus to Trump, from Batman to Boko Haram. Through the thick gauze of history, these breathtaking poems look the world square in the face and ask, 'What the actual... ?'

The Fraud of Eternity is a poetry collection by Darryl Houston Smith that serves as a visceral return to the "architecture of the dark". Published under the Dyad House imprint, the work rejects modern "fleeting digital sentiment" and the "soft comfort" of contemporary verse, opting instead for a "rigid, suffocating beauty".

Dans Sans qu’on le sache, Francine Sanche nous conduit en douce vers l’intime: une voix ferme les yeux, rentre la tête dans le ventre, fait taire les gestes pour laisser jubiler les mots. Funambule au centre, à l’aise sur une bulle, elle orbite vers son antre, abri douillet bordé de dentelle et de plein jour, couche d’œillets où se poser. Entre la tête et le cœur, elle s’intercale, à titre d’auteure.

Nicholas Vachel Lindsay (November 10, 1879-December 5, 1931) was an American poet. He is considered a founder of modern singing poetry, as he referred to it, in which verses are meant to be sung or chanted, as they were practiced by the ancient Greeks. Because of his identity as a performance artist and his use of American midwestern themes, Lindsay became known in the 1910s as the "Prairie Troubador."
