Ana Blandiana is one of Romania's foremost poets, a leading dissident before the fall of Communism, and winner of the Griffin Trust Lifetime Recognition Award in 2018. This new translation combines five books, three of protest poems from the 1980s plus two collections of love poetry, the most recent written after the death of her husband.

Dom Bury's first collection Rite of Passage is an initiation into what it means to be alive on the planet in the midst of extinction, of climate, environmental and systematic collapse. It is a journey into the shadow of man's distorted relationship with the earth. And yet in the utter darkness of this hour, these poems suggest that there is hope.

Matthew Caley's seventh collection speeds through a world where it's harder and harder to tell what's 'real' and what's not. Its title relates to waning national myths and fakery: Harry Potter World as an alibi for the rest of Britain, because the rest of Britain is Harry Potter World, as well as Deep Fake, QAnon, fake news and official news.

Please Do Not Touch This Exhibit explores disability, storytelling, and the process of mythologising trauma. Jen Campbell writes of Victorian circus and folklore, deep seas and dark forests, discussing her own relationship with hospitals - both as a disabled person, and as an adult reflecting on childhood while going through IVF.

The living and the dead are working side by side in John Challis's dramatic debut collection, The Resurrectionists. Whether in London's veg and meat markets, far below the Dartford Crossing, or on the edge of the Western world, these poems journey into a buried and sometimes violent landscape to locate the traces of ourselves that remain.

Museum of Ice Cream is Jenna Clake's second collection, following her debut Fortune Cookie (2017), winner of an Eric Gregory Award, shortlisted for a Somerset Maugham Award. An uncanny examination of objects, scenes and flavours, these poems explore how food can connect or divide, can feel isolating or terrifying, and what it mean to have a secret.

First collection by one of Ireland's most distinctive new lyrical voices, winner of the Listowel Writers' Week Poetry Collection Prize. Her poems are rooted in rural life but universal in their appeal.

When the Tree Falls is Jane Clarke's second collection. These lyrically eloquent poems bear witness to the rhythms of birth and death, celebration and mourning, endurance and regrowth. An elegiac sequence, inspired by the loss of her father, moves gracefully through this second collection.

Jane Clarke's third collection is far-reaching and yet precisely rooted in time and place, exploring how people, landscape and culture shape us. Voices of the past and present show courage in the face of poverty, prejudice, war and exile and everyday losses in what is essentially a book of love poems to our beautiful, fragile world.

Jo Clement's first collection confronts Romantic impressions of British Gypsy ethnicity and lyrically lays them to rest. Her poems consider notions of otherness, trespass, and craft. Compelled by a brutal Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller diasporic legacy, Outlandish tenderly praises the poem-as-protest and illuminates a hidden and threatened culture.

Irish poet Harry Clifton's latest collection ranges from South America to the North of Ireland, from Khao I Dang refugee camp to Glasnevin cemetery, These are poems of origin and migration, in quest of a lost maternal ground.

Sonnets by one of Ireland's leading poets celebrating his own part of Dublin: also a coming to terms with age and a rediscovering of the universal in the local.
