@poetryhilary.bsky.socialSometimes poetry books do come delightfully early. It's a beautiful quirk of the genre. Enjoy!

@ruebaldry.bsky.socialReposted by @poetryhilary.bsky.socialMenagerie Street just came through my letterbox! It’s the debut solo poetry collection by the wonderful Hilary Watson whose poetry has been delighting me for over ten years. So glad to hold this and can’t wait to read it! @poetryhilary.bsky.social @serenbooks.bsky.social
@poetryhilary.bsky.socialOoh that's very exciting! I didn't realise the preorders had been released into the world! Xx

Read my research-based attempt to imagine a global future. It starts seven years from now but some of it will be familiar, especially at the moment.
@poetryhilary.bsky.socialI'm absolutely loving Dwell. Really gripping stuff from the opening page. 🏵🌱🌈

@serenbooks.bsky.socialReposted by @poetryhilary.bsky.social‘Menagerie Street’ by @poetryhilary.bsky.social is a striking debut inspired by Thrutopia. With wit, tenderness and hope, she asks how we live, love and act together, offering poems that are by turns funny, unsettling and quietly exhilarating. Publishing 22 July www.serenbooks.com/book/menager...
