    The Rape of Lucrece (1594) is a narrative poem by William Shakespeare about the legendary Lucretia. Lucrece draws on the story described in both Ovid's Fasti and Livy's history of Rome. In 509 BC, Sextus Tarquinius, son of Tarquin, the king of Rome, raped Lucretia  (Lucrece), wife of Collatinus, one of the king's aristocratic retainers. As a result, Lucrece committed suicide. Her body was paraded in the Roman Forum by the king's nephew. This incited a full-scale revolt against the Tarquins led by Lucius Junius Brutus, the banishment of the royal family, and the founding of the Roman republic. (Summary by Wikipedia)

    Arguably the most famous road in Wales, the A470 is 186 miles from shore to shore through the backbone of Wales, linking north to south. From the seashore to slate quarries, from nuclear power stations and fighter plane flypasts to forests, mountains and the capital city.
    
    Travelling through memory, myth, love and grief, we learn lessons, ache for match tickets, stitch ourselves together and encounter famous goats.

    Robert Frost's "Selected Poems," published in 1923 by Henry Holt and Company, is a collection that showcases the poet's mastery of language, rhythm, and imagery. This anthology features a selection of Frost's most celebrated works, providing readers with a glimpse into the breadth and depth of his poetic talent. 
    The collection opens with Frost's iconic poem "The Road Not Taken," a meditation on choices, paths, and the uncertainties of life. Throughout the anthology, Frost explores themes such as nature, human experience, and the passage of time. His poems often depict rural landscapes, reflecting his deep connection to the New England countryside. 
    In "Selected Poems," readers encounter Frost's keen observations of the natural world, where he finds both beauty and brutality. From the tranquil scenes of snowy woods to the harsh realities of farm life, Frost's poetry captures the essence of rural existence with vivid clarity. 
    Beyond his depictions of nature, Frost delves into the complexities of human relationships and emotions. He explores themes of love, loss, isolation, and resilience, offering poignant insights into the human condition. 
    Throughout the collection, Frost's language is deceptively simple yet rich with layers of meaning. His use of meter, rhyme, and metaphor imbues his poems with a timeless quality, inviting readers to contemplate life's profound mysteries. 
    "Selected Poems" by Robert Frost is not merely a compilation of verses but a journey through the landscapes of the poet's imagination. With its lyrical beauty and profound insights, this anthology continues to captivate readers and solidify Frost's place as one of America's greatest poets.

    An inventive and assured debut from an exciting new voice in poetry. 
    In her striking collection of poems, Zoë Hitzig investigates how we seek certitude, power, and domination over the natural world and one another. Hitzig brings a scientific rigor to her poetry, as well as a raucous energy and willingness to allow her work to exist in states of uncertainty and precariousness. The result is an original voice that is incisive and unsparing, but also passionate and tender. Her poems probe the authority of language, exploring the surprising and powerful resonances that can be found among words and ideas. 
    Urgent in its creation of a new way of looking at our social and natural worlds, Mezzanine is an insightful and visceral debut collection from a poet whose work is poised to leave a lasting mark.
