Psychosis and Our Other Madnesses, edited by Dr Anna Percy, asks what we really mean when we call something “mad”. Moving through wards, emergency rooms, bedrooms, queer desire, paranoia, medication, memory and survival, these poems refuse both the romanticising of breakdown and the idea that a life can be reduced to a diagnosis. Madness here is complicated, bodily, political, funny, humiliating and fierce. A Poetry Book Society Book of the Week in July 2026.
 
Dirty Laundry, edited by Gerry Potter, is a working-class queer reckoning with all the stains left in. These poems come from club nights and corridors, bedrooms and back seats, from sex, grief, shame, tenderness, survival and the places where queerness gets lived before it ever gets named. Extravagant, intimate and gloriously unwilling to make itself palatable.
 
Ecoshock, edited by Glyn Edwards, comes from the hot, flooded, flickering edge of the climate crisis. Heat maps, flood lines, melting ice, mould, supermarkets, plastic, guilt and the strange fact of carrying on while the world changes around us. Featuring Imtiaz Dharker, Pascale Petit, Glyn Maxwell, Dean Atta, Harriet Tarlo, Abigail Parry, Sean Borodale and many more.
 
"If such crises can feel distant, this anthology persuasively describes a world in which rising temperatures – more than a splinter in the side – are not."
