Three pieces have been put on the website.
‘White Circle’ is a short typographical oddity about early cinema, Guillaume Apollinaire and the painting that predicted his death.
‘The Life and Deaths of Ida Lane’ is a short story in the form of a mock long-read about mental healthcare in post-war Britain, and within this the legend of a gifted artist.
Both ‘White Circle’ and an earlier version of ‘The Life and Deaths of Ida’ Lane were first published in issues of the Patricide print anthology.
As for Nether, I’m hesitant to call it a collection of automatic poetry but what it is, and this is the thing, is it’s a collection of automatic poetry. Or maybe that doesn’t have the same ring of lazy self-indulgence to you as it does to me. But what’s perhaps different about this is that it was all written while on the public transport systems of London, I think entirely the Underground and night busses.
