Really enjoying this latest Tove Ditlevsen from @penguinbooksuk.bsky.social foreword by Olga Ravn has already made me cry this morning "I don't understand how it's possible to be a mother and a partner and a worker at the same time in this society without breaking down"

This beautiful poem by Katharine Towers in the latest @poetrylondon.bsky.social is just stunning.

Couldn't resist getting Isabel Galleymore's latest collection as well...I just did a slightly embarrassing out loud snort on a crowded train at the idea of a slug as a "hunkling of fudge" 🤣

Read at York Literature Festival last night with the brilliant Mary Jean Chan, Isabel Galleymore and Lillian Akumparira. I love this mirror poem from Mary Jean...
