A wittily presented map of contemporary British poetry which identifies the different poetry projects going on and plots them as parallel strands. Sampson provides an accessible map of living British poets, grouped according to the kind of poetry they write, from the Plain Dealers to the Anecdotalists.

Deep in limestone country, at the corner of the counties of Wiltshire, Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire, lies the village of Coleshill. This haunting new collection from Fiona Sampson is a portrait of place, both real and imaginary; a dreamscape with its roots deep in the farming village of Coleshill.

Transforms the sensory world into an astonishingly new and vivid poetry. Combining formal sophistication with metaphysical exploration, this is an incandescent work of renewal, beauty and risk.
