Bill Griffiths
Collected Earlier Poems (1966-80)
Ed. Alan Halsey, Ken Edwards
Published by Reality Street 2010
Edition 1st
Condition Mint
This volume brings together for the first time Bill Griffiths’ poetry up to ‘Building: The New London Hospital’, including the ‘Cycles’ and ‘War W/ Windsor’ sequences that so astonished readers when they first appeared, as well as much other poetry that was published by his own Pirate Press imprint, Writers Forum and other small presses in the 1970s; and also poems and performance texts that have only made fleeting appearances in ephemeral pamphlets and magazines, or have never been published before. The works are presented in largely chronological order. Comprehensive endnotes detail both the publishing history and variations in texts and alternative versions.

Mike Gubser
Secret, but Kept it Room
Published by Ahadada 2005
Edition 1st
Condition Mint
’Secret, but Kept it Room’ explores the concept of self-as-words -- temporal and spatial, real and artificial, dimensional and fragmentary, a self both engaged in the physical world and torn from it, often disappearing into non-self. Mike Gubser treats poems as constructions in form, letter and image -- building notions of selfhood into various poetic spaces and structures to see how they react.
