Welcome to the fourth edition of our New Contexts anthology. Once again we have been able to harvest an eclectic selection of contemporary poetry and short prose from around the world. Authors in this collection are geographically spread across the United Kingdom and the United States of America, as well as Western Europe and Australasia.In curating these collections I am always struck how certain themes seem to emerge in each, as if the authors and poets have independently mined a contemporary theme or preoccupation.Yet whilst there may be some commonality of theme there is, as ever, a tremendous divergence of style and approach.

Not only do New Contexts’ contributors immerse themselves in this bottomless pool of inspiration, they can also be relied upon to...

  • Dead-heading Roses in the Museum Garden and Other Stories
    Ian Gouge

Consider the bride abandoned at the altar, the young woman being told ’no’ in the Social Security office, t...

    Ian Gouge
    In this, the seventh edition of the New Contexts anthologies, the quality of the submissions, their breadth of subject matter and style, remain joyously undiminished. It is a heady mix.
