Feature of the Day: Trickhouse Press
a donor to the AngelHousePress Crowd Funding Campaign
I am grateful that UK’s Trickhouse Press is donating to the AngelHousePress 2023 Caring Imagination Crowd Funding Campaign to help us pay our contributors. If you’d like to support the campaign, please go to the IndieGoGo campaign.
Trickhouse Press is donating the following four books to the campaign:
Sticker Poems by SJ Fowler
Forget everything you thought you knew about stickers and everything you might have suspected about poems. From animals to Mexican wrestlers, football players to medieval knights, zombie apocalypse to motivational mantras, Garbage Pail kids to dinosaurs, Sticker Poems is no less than a snapshot of human cognition, narrated by Fowler’s idiosyncratic poetics.
Notes to Self by Laura Tansley
It’s 2017, and Laura Tansley is pregnant. In the short months where her life is not entirely her own, but not her child’s yet either, she’s leaving messages for her future self, crystalising thoughts and locations in photographic moments. Beyond this time these poems are messages to the future, fleeting visions of a past psychology, and a record of the pressing present of parenthood. They are a testimony of herself, instances of clarity which at a moment’s notice can come unstuck, and disappear without a trace. Notes to Self contains 43 tender and fleeting post-it poems, and an illuminating introduction by the poet herself.
Songs of Despair by Roland Kogalin
Bringing together 10 years of work, Roland Kogalin's 'Songs of Despair' fragments and obscures the materials of language, both written and photographic, to haunting effect. Through sustained visual tension this collection traces out memory and dislocates time. By thoughtful arrangement of fragments and moments, these visual poems ripple and multiply like reflections held in shattered glass.
the Trickhouse Press 2022 Annual
The inaugural Trickhouse Press annual is a wide-ranging and forward-thinking compendium of work, showcasing the most exciting visual poetry in the UK and beyond. It's a collection of collections, each displayed on glossy, full-colour A4 pages.
