We are immensely saddened by news of the death of the poet J.H. Prynne, aged 89. Prynne was Britain's leading late Modernist poet. Bloodaxe has been proud to publish his poetry since 1999.

These wonderful poetic songs of lament and praise - ruminations juxtaposed to contradict, sooth, expose, appease within the natural and manufactured world we occupy. Full of lyricism throughout. @LeafePress @ShearsmanBooks

Andrew Taylor's latest from @LeafePress ~ rather than documenting, these poems convey as we truly see/observe: peripheral, fully felt, askance, fleeting, intense focus; HS perhaps hints at process - both these poems exemplfy flow and disruption, and a recurring lyricism...
NEW from Leafe Press:
"State Honey" by Andrew Taylor @dradny :
"...fast-moving to contemplative, presenting experience mediated by language that is fragmentary and shifting, disconcerting and never dull."
