Words can be a way to unlock our feelings. Poetry allows us to be in touch with our emotions and helps us unlock and explore our vulnerability. You'll Never Walk Alone is a collection of the kind of inspirational texts—mainly poems—that can accompany us, whatever we are feeling, from sorrow to delight. The texts are not just about words which can console us or comfort us—though they often do this too. Rather these are poems that allow us to enjoy a full range of emotions.

Numbers don't lie, all of mankind collectively as individuals eternally searches for freedom. Six poets from across the UK innovatively use UK grime music as inspiration to reflect upon the concept of liberation in its various manifestations.

This fusion has the option of accompanying audio, using the age-old purity of the spoken word expressed through the electronic medium of UK grime.

This collection pays tribute in story and verse to our four-footed canine friends - those doggone dogs. You will find every kind of dog: loyal and devoted dogs, honest to a fault dogs, brave dogs, trouble-prone dogs, hungry dogs, bad dogs, misunderstood dogs, understanding dogs, comforting dogs, and many more. You will laugh, cry, and ponder as you listen to this delightful tribute to our dog companions. For, without them - and their doggy hearts - the world would be a colder, less interesting, and certainly less loving place. So here's to those doggone dogs!

Porter served with the RAF during the Cold War.

Black Girl Magic continues and deepens the work of the first BreakBeat Poets anthology by focusing on some of the most exciting Black women writing today. This anthology breaks up the myth of hip-hop as a boys’ club and asserts the truth that the cypher is a feminine form.

In this collection, you’ll find stories conveyed through poetry and song. Some of them will no doubt be familiar to you - like Francis Scott Key’s Star Spangled Banner and Julia Ward Howe’s Battle Hymn of the Republic (although many people are only familiar with the first verse). Other poems will be entirely new to you. My hope is that you’ll embrace both the familiar and the unfamiliar as pieces of the American story that deserve to be remembered.

Der "König der Vorleser" nutzt sein ausdrucksstarkes Stimmrepertoire für die Meisterstücke der deutschen Lyrik und bringt neben beliebten Klassikern auch unbekanntere Schätze zum Klingen.

"Corps féminin qui tant est tendre", gémissait le pauvre Villon. Emmêlant le blé à la cuisse, le lierre au torse, la colline à la croupe et le vent de la plaine aux baisers, les poètes du XVIe siècle - qui ont payé chacun de leur mot - nous livrent l'éblouissante image d'une création réconciliée où les termes de "corps" et "d'esprit" savent ne plus aller en s'opposant. Ils sont nos seuls poètes royaux parce qu'ils sont seuls à donner la recette qui permet à chacun de regarder le monde, la mort et le plaisir "à hauteur d'homme".
