Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

New Famous Phrases is a poetic tour de force that traverses ancient mythologies, aquatic fables, and the evolving art of poetry itself. Drawing inspiration from canonical poets like John Keats, Ted Hughes, and T. S. Eliot, as well as contemporary voices such as Terrance Hayes and Jo Clement, the collection creates a tapestry of interconnected influences. Ecological and aquatic myths thread through its pages, breathing life into vibrant new stories while reflecting on writerly ambition and the transformative power of crafting 'famous phrases.' Its standout pieces, like the tribute to W. S. Graham in 'Dear Sydney Graham' and the declaration of poetic intent in 'Scraps to Daub a Siren's Lips,' showcase Daniel Hinds's masterful ability to blend homage with innovation. Through prose poems, critical-pastiche reviews, and mythopoeic reimaginings, the collection offers a dazzling meditation on legacy, influence, and the perpetual creation of meaning in poetry.
