What a wonderful review of Amanda Merritt’s ‘The Divining Pool’ (published by @wundoreditions) in @LAReviewofBooks - thanks to Rowland Bagnall. And what an honour to be reviewed alongside Helen Dunmore’s ‘Inside the Wave’, winner of @Costa #bookoftheyear. https://t.co/CzyPh25N3Z

NEW WUNDOR EDITION:
Alice Iris Red Horse
Out 9th April

Yoshimasu Gozo’s poetry is highly unorthodox: it challenges the print medium and language itself. ‘Alice Iris Red Horse’ is as much a book on translation as it is a book in translation.

‘The Divining Pool unites restless and edgy inventiveness with a sense of the classical that seems to me rare in a first collection. This is the rich, tender, carefully crafted work of a poet who dares to soar’ - John Burnside 💫
