Best of Manchester Poets

Best of Manchester Poets is the first major attempt in recent years to showcase the talent, individuality and sheer fun of the Manchester poetry scene.

A 130-page, 8×5.25in paperback book, it features poems by over 60 of the best poets writing and working in Manchester right now, including Gerry Potter (a.k.a. Chloe Poems), Dominic Berry, Steve O’Connor, Jackie Hagan, Cathy Bryant, Angela Smith, Simon Rennie, Gordon Zola, and Marvin Cheeseman.

Readable and entertaining, this isn’t your father’s poetry, and definitely not your grandfather’s.

At just £9.99, it’s good value too. Available from all good bookshops (including Amazon.co.uk), you can also order a copy by clicking the Shop link above. Unlike other online shops, we offer FREE P&P and speedy delivery.

An eBook version is also available exclusively from the Puppywolf website for half the price of the print edition!

Cathy Bryant

Funny, charming, yet with punch and edge, Cathy Bryant’s award-winning poetry has been turning heads since her debut on the Manchester scene several years ago.

A performance favourite at gigs around the north west of England, her work shows a witty and insightful observation of life rarely found elsewhere.

Contains Strong Language and Scenes of a Sexual Nature is her debut poetry collection, and will be published by Puppywolf in mid-October 2010. To learn more about her, visit her website: www.cathybryant.co.uk.
