  • The Republic of Song
    Kelvin Corcoran
    The Republic of Song is a journey to discover the place of that name, moving through abhorrence to vision.  The political chicanery of barely believable figures is excoriated and set against a world where Orpheus holds sway, friendship outstares death, Nina Simone is happy and Jack Spicer sends us a message about daddy Zeus president.  In The Republic of Song everything is chan...

  • Winterreisen
    Alan Halsey / Kelvin Corcoran
    These collaborative sequences were written during the winter months 2015-18. The poets’ journeys took them from Hove via Paris to Istanbul, on to Baghdad then across the Steppes and along the Silk Road. They nearly reached the North Pole before landing on the Moon. Returning to England they recorded its savage devastation. Our bedraggled pair were rescued only by discovering in...

  • The Red and Yellow Book
    Kelvin Corcoran
    The Red and Yellow Book was published by Textures in 1986, the imprint of Penny Bailey. My recollection is that little from the book had been published elsewhere previously. This was partly because it was written and published very quickly. Its writing was accelerated by the personal events which at first appeared to interrupt my initial ideas about what I thought I was doing. ...

  • Facing West
    Kelvin Corcoran
    "Facing West achieves true illuminations of the places and uses of myth. Corcoran’s lines balance impressively between sometimes cryptic, aphoristic phrases and an orality encountered in song –and in great poetry. Several poems are almost like screens with a critical or philosophical text behind them; and the verse emerges stranger, and stronger, for the incidents in other book...

  • Sea Table
    Kelvin Corcoran
    In Sea Table Kelvin Corcoran brings to all back home. Not that it was ever very far away, but for twenty years or more he has been writing a lot of poetry concerning Greece and may have gained a reputation as a specialist or travel-writing poet, both of which would be wrong. Greece, both place and stories, was a lens onto our present condition and its depths, and through that f...

  • Backward Turning Sea
    Kelvin Corcoran
    Corcoran’s first collection since his New & Selected Poems in 2004, ’Backward Turning Sea’ (i.e. the Mediterranean) shows the author deepening his engagement with Greece, both ancient and modern - but it is a place where contemporary politics can intrude, disturbing the reverie. The collection also includes a number of poems based on the author’s fascination with the paintings ...
