Out Now!

The Jealousies by Benjamin Stainton


"Ben Stainton's incisive poems take us back to what we think are familiar places … There seem to be no barriers. Life, death, location, the inner workings of the body, blood and skin are all seamlessly accessed, sometimes all at once … These tasty, gourmet poems satisfy our less familiar appetites." Greg Cox

"Inspirational … a truly great poetic read."
Lisa Stewart

"Brilliant, original, evocative, vivid … wonderfully sinister and often very beautiful."
Jane Darwin
