Anthony Howell -
Some compare him to Catulus, some to the Earl of Rochester. Others call him an abstract pervert; all are correct. Feature length set from his five Anvil collections and new work from the brains behind the Room operation!

Tamsin Kendrick –
Life and crimes of a free-verse, globe-trotting upper class lush plus some New New Apocalypstick, fresh back from her NYC mini-tour.
