When I Grow Up I Want To Be Mary Beard by Megan BeechBurning Eye
Burning Eye seeks to break down some of the barriers that are put up between young poets and publishers to make it more accessible for poets to put work out early in their career. This chapbook from Megan Beech is the third example of Burning Eye working with a young poet in this way. Although still in her second year at University Megan has already caught attention with her infectious reeling wordplay, but, as is already evident in When I Grow Up I Want to be Mary Beard, she is quickly moving on into more complex writing. Megan is not afraid of speaking her mind and grappling with political themes with a confidence missing in many older poets. When I Grow Up To Be Mary Beard captures the sound of a resurgent feminism that demands to be heard and marks Megan out as a name to watch.

My Stepmother Tried to Kill Me by Thommie Gillow sampleBurning Eye
My Stepmother Tried to Kill Me is to poetry what Bridget Jones Diary is to fiction. Thommie Gillow tells the truth about modern womanhood. Boyfriends are frequently disastrous, motherhood plays havoc with your body, your stepmother most probably does want to kill you and it is hard to know when you start to go grey in your thirties whether dying your hair is vain or an anti-feminist betrayal.
“Poetry that hugs while it tugs, teaches while it reaches. Buy this peach then buy copies for all your friends.“ Marcus Moore
Thommie Gillow spent her early years in Bath where she discovered a love of poetry, but it was not until her family relocated to the North East that Thommie grew old enough to have her heart broken by many of the men who have influenced the poetry in this book. She lived and worked in several countries before settling down to become an English lecturer back in the South West. A single mum to one daughter, Thommie has a Masters in Creative Writing from Cardiff University and has twice been shortlisted for the Bridport Poetry Prize.
Opposite the Tour Bus by Sophia Walker SAMPLEBurning Eye
Having been advised to 'Always travel in the direction opposite the tourbus' Sophia Walker set out to get away from the big noise, big tourist attraction, tick box bucket list experiences of life and find out what was happening quietly (and sometimes not so quietly) on the other side of the street or the less visited part of town. The poems collected here tell those stories whether that is an eye opening report from a sex education workshop in an everyday British town, or something more harrowing from Irag or Africa. Sophia points out that it is not always the journey but the landing that counts, the coming back. How it is not the specific moment of an experience that tells the full story but also what comes afterwards. How those who seek to damage and harass unwittingly leave strength and resilience in their wake. These are the less-heard stories. Some are Sophia's – told first hand, some she witnessed. All are true.
or distilled, decanted & debauched
David Bateman and Hiromi Goto’s collaborative poem is a nostalgic/anti-nostalgic creative autobiographical conversation. Tracing their relationship to their fathers, their lives, and to each other through the transfiguring effects of alcohol, the narrative travels from glamorous nightclubs and the Jade Market in Taipei to Peterborough, Ontario and Nanton, Alberta. Through memory, mourning, geographies and sexualities, this poetic narrative is at once a memento mori and meditations upon wabi sabi.
In her most revealing and powerful memoir yet, the beloved activist, speaker, and bestselling author of Love Warrior and Carry On, Warrior explores the joy and peace we discover when we stop striving to meet the expectations of the world, and start trusting the voice deep within us.This is how you find yourself.There is a voice of longing inside each woman. We strive so mightily to be good: good partners, daughters, mothers, employees, and friends. We hope all this striving will make us feel alive. Instead, it leaves us feeling weary, stuck, overwhelmed, and underwhelmed. We look at our lives and wonder: Wasn?t it all supposed to be more beautiful than this? We quickly silence that question, telling ourselves to be grateful, hiding our discontent?even from ourselves.For many years, Glennon Doyle denied her own discontent.

Michell Madsen is a good example of a growing band of poets who have learnt their craft by performing live. If you only encountered her poetry on the page however, you would just think "poet" and find no need to get weighed down by a "performance" prefix or wonder whether this is that mysterious Spoken Word you have heard about.
Maybe Michelle is a cross over artist who is at ease in both poetry worlds, she certainly understands better than most that “page and stage” operate inside the same tent. The poems collected here show a flair for structure and technique that only serves to strengthen work written first and foremost with the microphone in mind. From wild romance to dark satire Michelle’s poetry contemplates love, lust, physics, politics, identity and gastronomic oddities.
