The Mallarmé Poems

Published by Cinnamon in 2020, The Mallarmé Poems is a series of thirteen improvisations around lines written by the nineteenth-century French poet Stéphane Mallarmé. 
​ 
  • "a riotous music [...] always wonderfully engaged with the dance and the party that language can be" - Jonathan Edwards
  • "Skilful, witty, original and often joyful homages to the Master" - Patrick McGuinness
  • "a charming and uneasy series of voices"; "dancelike syntactic pauses and shifts"; "The pamphlet's black humour and enigmatic vibe makes for perfect pandemic-time reading, in which there are 'hours yet to wait for relief, for the light'" - Liz Edwards (Planet: The Welsh Internationalist, February-May 2021)
