Where Are You, Susie Petschek?
Capan's poems are at once lyrical and wry, rich and plain. They inhabit the large landscapes of Turkish life — steppes and forests, seas and mountains — and also an extended world of modern politics.

Samuel Johnson in Marrickville
Dennis Haskell's first UK publication is a selection of poems from three full-length collections published in Australia. Closely-observed, lyrical, Romantic, humorous and above all fiercely honest, Haskell's poetry deals with the 'ordinary' — childhood, parenthood, love, sex, politics, friends, families, the sun-drenched landscape, the flash flood — in an extraordinary way. This is a powerful and memorable collection from one of Australia's most distinguished poets.

Astronaut
Astronaut abounds with an unflagging energy, an exuberance of language and a humour that is by turns savage and deadpan, all of which leave the reader encountering Brian Henry's poems for the first time gasping for air. But so compelling is his cleverness with words and exploitation of the poetic form that the reader will be only too happy to take the plunge again. Already a rising star in his native US, Brian Henry will undoubtedly make his mark in the UK with this, his first published full-length collection.

Camp Notebook
The fame of this notebook (the pages of which are reproduced at the beginning of this volume) does not only rest on the poignancy of its story; Camp Notebook is a masterpiece in its own right, a crucial work of European verse. It is one of the greatest pieces of literature to emerge from the Holocaust, and probably the finest volume of poetry born from the horror of the Second World War.
