In 1892, Alfred Tennyson, the official Poet Laureate of Great Britain, died. According to custom, a new Laureate now had to be chosen by the Prime Minister. But on this occasion, uniquely, there was a problem. Many different candidates for the position were suggested, but for several years, none were chosen. In this recording, we listen to selected poems by Tennyson himself and by ten writers nominated to succeed him.

Read by the author, John Cooper Clarke. John Cooper Clarke may have an honorary doctorate and a poem on the English Literature GCSE syllabus, but don’t let that fool you: the ‘Poet Laureate of Punk’ is still a bona fide iconoclast. In Have It, a collection of scathing new poems, the Bard...

Tough times. Life threw challenges and failures in ways that I never imagined. I felt unsure, unclear, and even wondered if there is anything called a future. I took a deep breath, decided to accept everything that happened, and then tried to move on. Whenever I accepted a failure, I felt my soul getting energy to rejuvenate. Then, I decided to make the process of rejuvenation even more rewarding. I started setting some smaller goals. I set a newer goal - let me create my first book. With no filters, but only with the right to express in the right form!

In What Have I Done? Carrie Close writes, “all these little birds keep picking at me/hard, determined beaks peck through skin, scrape/against bone—they dance and chirp ominous tones…” The connection Close builds between themes of love, motherhood, and relationships hits you in the fame like a taut rubber band forcing you to home in on every last detail. Close pens a charged, feminist collection that avoids polishing for the sake of looking good.

I wrote these poems incrementally, but collated, edited, and recorded them collectively. A process that was at first therapeutic and then brutally revealing. A lot of the pieces touch upon regret, lost possibilities, and missed opportunities born of trauma, neglect, mental illness, and fear, as well as the desperation that comes when you find yourself searching for hope inside of darkness.

Look We Have Coming to Dover! is the most acclaimed debut collection of poetry published in recent years as well as one of the most relevant and accessible.

The poem expresses some of the heart wrenching universal truths and conflicting emotions anyone who goes to war must face: that you'd rather be home than at war and that death is there with you at all times, either waiting for you to die or waiting for you to kill.

Threnody is an archaic word which has its roots in the Greek term, which means to sing a dirge, generally at a funeral or at the loss of a cherished person. In this volume, D. Scott Smith (author of Motivational Listener) provides vision and understanding that allows for comparison between the “good old days” and the present times. The nineteenth century seems so distant and unreal, almost as if there is no connection between the people of that era and ourselves. When listening to this book, you will be surprised at how much we have in common.

Bas kuchh isee tarah vaqat ke kuchh ṭukadon ko yaad kee kachchee rassee se lapeṭ diyaa aur risane ke dard kee syaahee kaagazaon par bikharatee rahee, shabd banatee rahee aur zaindagee chalatee rahee. In pannon men jo bhee kuchh hain unhen kavitaa to naheen kahaa jaa sakataa, bas kuchh pal hain jo sustaane ko ṭhahar gae hain.

The themes of shared experience, the relationship of human beings to one another throughout time, and the ultimate power of place are explored in this poem by one of the most revered American poets, Walt Whitman.
