English Poetry Anthology

9327 Days to Oblivion is the debut poetry anthology from Jas James. Written across the very worst and very best times of her life, this diverse collection is a walk through the extreme, the conflicting and the downright taboo thoughts and feelings that accompany grief, loss, learning to accept yourself and finding a voice.

Contained in this book are 25 poems, each speaking about a multitude of different subjects. Each one is written in a different style, such as rhyme and free verse, and are sure to please!

Freeze Frame brings together six international poets, each with their own vision of what would appear in the static frame if we captured the flow of our ceaseless contemporary narrative. Read and recorded by the poets themselves in their home locations, the listener may experience their full presence and intention.

Numbers don't lie, all of mankind collectively as individuals eternally searches for freedom. Six poets from across the UK innovatively use UK grime music as inspiration to reflect upon the concept of liberation in its various manifestations. Whether freedom from social expectations, religious indoctrination, and self-hatred, to the ubiquity of iniquity via discrimination. This fusion has the option of accompanying audio, using the age-old purity of the spoken word expressed through the electronic medium of UK grime.

The office of Poet Laureate goes back many centuries - informally to the time of Geoffrey Chaucer in 1389 and followed thereafter by a number of ‘volunteer laureates’. It was formally assigned to Ben Jonson in 1617 and, as a Royal office by letters patent in 1670, to John Dryden. It is a rich, rewarding history that bursts with the words, themes and visions of many great poets that has bound poetry and poets to a nation's soul.

An Anthology of Poetry and Prose written by Women in the First World War. War Girls is a commemoration and celebration of the remarkable, often deeply moving and largely unsung experiences of women in the First World War told in their own words.

The styles and rhythms of English can vary fully as much as in poetry. Therefore to compliment The Anthology Of English Poetry, The Anthology Of English Prose aims to enchant with the best of English prose, and to illustrate the ways in which each great writer has bent the language to his will. The recordings were made in the 1950s by members of the University of Cambridge and directed by George Rylands.

A moving collection of prose and poetry written by veterans of the military. Their stories and poignant, sometimes excruciatingly humorous, personal experiences span history from WWII to the Cold and Vietnam Wars, to the conflicts of the Persian Gulf and Iraqi Freedom, and even to little-known clandestine operations in remote corners of the globe. Written by veterans of every branch of the services, each writer has answered the call to defend and protect human values both great and small.
