  Female Poets of the Nineteenth...

  For much of history women have been seen rather than heard. Their thoughts, their views have lain too long in the shadows of our culture.  Whilst this traditional view has some merit it is not entirely accurate. 
  Here, gathered together in these volumes, we can, through their words, experience their lives; we can hear their voices, their thoughts, joys, loves and losses. 
  For the Female Poet there was always the confining hand of men to instruct that their time was perhaps spent more productively elsewhere.  These lines, these gilded verses often protest otherwise. 
  The contribution of women in these earlier centuries is immense and in this series we bring together poets who have created some of the most beautiful and expressive verses ever written.  And remember these words, these telling lines, have been written against the grain of society's male bias.  With their remembered words these female poets have given us a history that we can all now share. 
  This volume comes to you from Portable Poetry, a specialized imprint from Deadtree Publishing.  Our range is large and growing and covers single poets, themes, and many compilations.

  THE MALEVOLENT VOLUME EXPLORES THE MYTHS AND TRANSFORMATIONS OF BLACK BEING, ON A CONTINUUM BETWEEN THE MONSTROUS AND THE SUBLIME. 
    
  Subverting celebrated classics of poetry and mythology and examining horrors from contemporary film and cultural fact, National Book Award winner Justin Phillip Reed engages darkness as an aesthetic to conjure the revenant animus that lurks beneath the exploited civilities of marginalized people. In these poems, Reed finds agency in the other-than-human identities assigned to those assaulted by savageries of the state. In doing so, he summons a retaliatory, counter-violent Black spirit to revolt and to inhabit the revolting. 
    
  “Reed blends intersectional politics and bodily hunger in precise, thorny language.”—New York Times

  'I write. I demand. I ask.
  Not for women to have power over men but over themselves.'
  Trailblazing writer, feminist philosopher, and fearless campaigner for women's rights, Mary Wollstonecraft lived a life of courage and determination. She dared to defy the conventions of eighteenth-century Britain, and kept going when many wanted to bring her down.
  Maureen Lennon's play Mary and the Hyenas is a searing tribute to the spirit and resilience of a woman who fought for equality and justice – and an exhilarating dive into history and the birth of feminism. Be prepared for petticoats to be lifted, boots to be stamped, and voices raised in the pursuit of change.
  Featuring electrifying music by Billy Nomates and performed by a cast of six, Mary and the Hyenas was first produced by Hull Truck Theatre and Pilot Theatre, directed by Esther Richardson, and opened at Hull Truck Theatre in 2025 before a UK tour.
  This edition includes the full text of the play along with a range of teaching materials and resources designed to help educators bring the play to life for their students.

  Read by the Author. Features exclusive audiobook-only bonus content you won’t want to miss!

Through poetry that is remarkably specific yet widely universal, she explores what it means to grow older in a fallen body, wrestles with complicated feelings around grief and suffering this side of Heaven, and reflects on the ache of living in a world that feels both heavy and holy.In these poems and Scriptures, you will find:permission to be honest about the pain of life, without losing faitha tender awareness of God’s nearness, even when life feels chaoticencouragement, joy, and comfort in your pursuit of Christ, strengthening your faith even in trialsa reminder that Heaven is real—and it holds hope for you todayA trusted and authentic voice for modern Christian women, Laura’s poems give language to the parts of us that know God is real but need reminders that He is still moving in our lives, even now. Her compassionate words are meant to be returned to again and again, on walks, in quiet moments, or in seasons when everyday life feels like too much. Like a hand gently beckoning, these poems invite us to notice the holy mystery woven through our ordinary days and trust that, even here on this side of the sky, we are held by a God who is both tender and present.

  This is a disturbing, poetic account of an unnamed dictator’s eyebrow whose longings, delusions of grandeur, and curious influence have shaped history in ways previously unknown—until now. Within a surreal tale about an eyebrow’s thirst for recognition and power, a love story also unexpectedly emerges. 
   
  Finalist for the Singapore Book Publishers Association Awards 2016. 
   
  “An enthralling pyroclastic flow of poetic flagellation ripping the mask of stoic indifference and lapdog-media concocted majestic stature of a narcissistic tyrant. And every wordstroke of the poet never fails to decode and eviscerate the megalomaniac to the grave.” 
  - Elangovan, recipient of the 1997 SEA Write Award
