Some books seem to take a lifetime to arrive and I hate to say it, but if not quite that long, it is a year later than intended that we finally get to share Sue Burge’s quite beautiful ‘The Saltwater Diaries’ with you all.
Following on from her previous collection for us, Lumière, The Saltwater Diaries is in every sense beautiful.
Paul Stephenson said of it,
“Richly atmospheric poems of snarl and fang with dark, story-like qualities that explore the relationship between sea and self – each one an alternative portrait, each one a linguistically rich inquisition of nature and existence that dredges past and present, excavating unexpected treasures. This is a pamphlet with ballast and intent that sails the warp and weft of the tides.”
As ever, we want you to read our books and totally encourage you to support our poets by buying their work directly from them and Sue has ‘The Saltwater Diaries’ listed on her web site HERE
As a bonus, Sue is offering both of her Hedgehog Collections as a ‘Bundle’ and if you buy this direct from Sue in the next fortnight, you will also be eligible for a FREE ENTRY to any one of our competitions.
But you need to be quick.
To enter the competition, by the 29th of September 2020 you need to:
- Buy a Bundle of Lumiere and The Saltwater Diaries from Sue HERE
- Email your Competition entry along with the payment receipt to the email address on the relevant competition page.
It is as simple as that.
To be clear –
You need to BUY the Bundle within the next fortnight – i.e. by midnight on Tuesday the 29th of September 2020.
You DO NOT need to enter the competition by the 29th. You can enter anytime after that.
Sorry if that was unclear :)
