  Tara is Kathleen Gallagher's first published book of verse. The twenty-six poems in the collection were written between 1979 and 1986. during this period Kathleen participated in poetry readings and workshops throughout Aotearoa New Zealand, and in Sydney, Melbourne and San Francisco. Alongside this poetry, during this period Kathleen has also written plays for performance in Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia. 
  "The presentation of these poems is exquisite, the work itself is interesting and image laden, often delicate in style." Fiona Kidman, NZ Listener 09/04/1988. 
  "Kathleen Gallagher is not new to the poetry scene although this is her first published book, a promising collection. The poems illustrate a breaking free from the confines of the city and the return to the freedom of the coastline. Here the poet can feel free at ease with rocks and sea and gulls and at one with tangata whenua, as in the last poem - "I feel heavy with the sounds of tall buildings/ and hills/ hiding the sky/ and long for gulls/ and you/ easy in my heart/ holding my hand/simple as rain/washing the scars/ from my hair." Rangi Faith, The Press 20/7/1988

  READ BY THE AUTHORFrom viral spoken word poet and author of The Rose That Blooms in the Night, a luminous new collection for fans of Rupi Kaur and Cleo Wade that explores themes of mindfulness, love, grief, and the strength it takes to be soft.“Allie's poetry doesn’t just speak, it holds up a mirror. With raw truth and quiet grace, her words cut through the noise and pull you home to yourself.”—Jay Shetty, #1 New York Times bestselling author and host of On PurposeIn a world obsessed with productivity and perfection, Allie Michelle’s poetry is a radical invitation to slow down, soften, and come alive. With a voice both fierce and tender, she reminds us that beauty is a birthright.Her newest collection, Don't Wait to Light the Candles, is a poetic call to presence: a celebration of small sacred moments, a reckoning with pain, and a spark for anyone learning to rediscover their joy and live with their whole heart.This book is both balm and blaze—a place to land, and a push to rise.Do not despair aboutWho the world wants you to be,The world was never watching.Exit stage leftAnd send away your scripts.The best livesAre the ones worth disapproving of—Footprints in the sand washed awaySo no one can follow.The only thing worse than a mistake,Is a person too careful to make them.

  'There was a moment... Where it looked at me. The stag. We looked at each other. And I had this feeling like... Like it was gonna show me something.'
  Meet Oskar, Rio and Hazel: three people getting on with their lives in different corners of the globe. They've never spoken. They've never met. But they're each about to experience a startling wild-animal encounter. One that will transform the way they think about their world.
  From Norway's glittering fjords to Colorado's stunning peaks via Halewood's majestic Tesco, The Walrus Has a Right to Adventure is a swooping, soaring play about instinct, expectation and identity – and what it means to be truly free.
  Inspired by real stories from around the world, Billie Collins's powerful and inventive play premiered at the Liverpool Everyman in 2025, directed by Nathan Crossan-Smith.

  Dynamo

  What is Dynamo? It is the first full-length collection by an extraordinarily entertaining and exhilarating poet. Over the course of this book, things break down, start again, light up, get stuck. Relationships stagnate, mountains and seas diminish, White nationalists fall over in Blackpool, and a wealthy couple's house disappears one day, leaving them surrounded by their appliances, tanned and eating an egg.
  I'm always listening out for a new poet who can take the deceptively effortless, witty yet ultimately serious chops of the New York School, make it work for this generation and bring the whole thing in to land just outside a British city, losing nothing in transit. And God it's been worth the wait. This is a poetry of exquisite timing, with some of the most satisfying last lines I've ever read. Yates can take an everyday domestic detail and make it sparkle with the mystery of a Raedecker painting. – Luke Kennard
