Great Regulars: While always respectably published,

with eight previous collections from Peterloo Press, [Anna] Adams was not widely known or fashionable. John Killick, her editor and publisher, argues in the chapbook's introduction that her poems could appeal to a much wider public. I think this is true. Poetry's estate has many mansions. Mostly formal, but still searching and original, Adams's work belongs in the one least visited, and often thought no longer to exist. £5 will buy you the key.
