| book description |

Poets make natural spies. Nondescript these days, they’re subtle and ever-watchful. Shifty in their skins, you might say. They are practised at fleeing and giving pursuit, and quick to reach for a pen (which may conceal a poison dart). Most importantly, they are experts at slipping the grip of rival operatives, at least one of whom is their own dark double. Ten Poets Do Their Bit for the Secret Service passes out the passports to ten such agents, sending them out on new missions to capture, conceal, communicate and (hopefully) come back alive… Featuring new work by: Alison Brackenbury, John Clegg, Michael Conley, Grace Ellis, Jac Harmon, Safa Maryam, Claire Orchard, Jess Richards, Robert Sheppard, Jeremy Wikeley
