James Davies - Plants
£8.50, Reality Street, May 2011 (80 pp.)
'There is not a closed word class in this collection. Cinch-backed poems are piled high with name-teasing. Planxties of hom-bo him-jam merriment abound. Davies' wit sends us many a mass noun without Imms. Reading Plants "unmade" my day, and it is a melch better swing than I have ever sung.' - Tina Darragh

Carol Watts - Occasionals
£8.50, Reality Street, May 2011 (88 pp.)
Written over 12 months, from 23 September 2006 to 14 September 2007, Carol Watts’ sequence of poems explores the freight of a year with an ear to its future. Fragments and "cuts" of time and memory, light, sound, weather, the voices of children. John Clare wandering among rinds of a shoe-making village and city parakeets. Small series, detonating. The working through of an occasional tense, its cost, its serious music, its gift.
