Tada! Here's a page for The Foliate Head (UK: Stanza Press, 2012.) The poetry collection, out this month, is a limited edition of 300. If you want a copy, I recommend that you get it soon. I know it's available directly through Stanza Press and also through various Amazon sites, and of course one can always order through your favorite indie bookstore.
It is a special thing--a remarkably handsome item with grand design by Andrew Wakelin, artwork by the artist Clive Hicks-Jenkins, and poems by me. A rare thing, this, the book created by friends! I look forward to seeing a box of copies at my door.
If you have any suggestions or comments, there's a box at the foot of the book page with no pesky word verification or other hoops to jump.

The Throne of Psyche
Seek Giacometti’s “The Palace at 4 a.m.” Go back two hours. See towers and curtain walls of matchsticks, marble, marbles, light, cloud at stasis. Walk in. The beggar queen is dreaming on her throne of words… You have arrived at the web home of Marly Youmans, maker of novels, poems, and stories, as well as the occasional fantasy. D. G. Myers: "A writer who has more resolutely stood her ground against the tide of literary fashion would be difficult to name."

Alas, I must once again remind large numbers of Chinese salesmen and other worldwide peddlers that if they fall into the Gulf of Spam, they will be eaten by roaming Balrogs. The rest of you, lovers of grace, poetry, and horses (nod to Yeats--you do not have to be fond of horses), feel free to leave fascinating missives and curious arguments.
Not in Canada, pity. I do so want this!
ReplyDeleteI'll check with Nicky Crowther and see if it will be available there...
