Entering the tapestry - Mimi Khalvati

Entering the Tapestry, the second volume in The Poetry School's warmly welcomed series of anthologies of new voices, presents a generous selection of work from thirty poets. Some are on their way to a first collection, others exploring what might lie beyond the success of individual poems. All of them offer not only an abundance of talent but the delight of fully achieved poems and the presence of an individual voice. In its variety of style, tone, length and subject matter, Entering the Tapestry is an invitation to enjoy the contrasts and follow the distinctive threads in a vivid spectrum of new writing, whether it falls within current fashions or dares to strike out beyond. POETS: Frances Angela, Matt Barnard, Chris Beckett, Linda Black, Diana Brodie, Nadine Brummer, Robert Chandler, Valerie Clarke, Heather Coffey, Tricia Corob, Wendy French, Jacqueline Gabbitas, Lucy Hamilton, Bryan Heiser, Fawzia Kane, Nell Keddie, Khan Singh Kumar, Julia Lewis, Maureen Li, Tony McKeown, Dominic McLoughlin, Mary MacRae, Bill Presley, Meryl Pugh, Jo Roach, Anna Robinson, Beverley Rowe, Anne Ryland, Deborah Sacks, Ruth Smith.
