In The Light of This
Audio CD – Here is an intertwining of voice, rhythm, roots music and poetry. The Psychicbread provide music that works to underscore, and empower the magical words of Mark Gwynne Jones.

Psychicbread
This debut collection introduces Mark Gwynne Jones and the space between our thoughts. Poetry presented in print, audio and film.
‘Mark Gwynne Jones should be ruined with fame and money before he shows the rest of us up for the bunch of sissies we are. But if you don’t want the truth, don’t call a poet, at least not a real one.’ – Martin Newell, The Independent
Stories From A World Of Music

I Am
Autobiography and poetry from performance poet Michelle Scally Clarke, which takes us through her difficult formative years. A performance CD comes with the book, with Michelle accompanied by her band.
‘Every now and again individuals come along who breathe new life into performance poetry. Michelle Scally Clarke is one such individual. Her intelligence, her verbal agility and her passion means that poetry is alive once more.’ – Benjamin Zephaniah
Moveable Type
Debut collection from Rommi Smith, first publushed in 2000. Comes complete with a CD of Rommi underscored by a group of musicians who bring a folk jazz feel to the whole proceedings.
She Is
She Is plays close witness to a life unfolding. Together these poems and autobiographical asides journey through love and lust; through grief and pain, through growing up, of getting closer to understanding the nature of the woman inside.
‘I felt like I wanted to wrap Scally Clarke up in cotton wool by the end of the book and my first pint, but by the time I got home and played the CD, it made me smile again.’ – Nik Pearson
