This anthology showcases innovative poetry practice at the growing edge of contemporary literature. It gathers language art, textual and visual poetry from nineteen active members of Popogrou – a worldwide collective emerging from writer and artist SJ Fowler’s online Potential Poetries workshop programme, established during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.

Generous, inclusive, unconventional and celebratory, it is a volume that honours the fellowship of a distinctively creative and productive collective of writers and artists, whose encouragement, support and insight continues to contribute to the evolution of everyone’s personal and collaborative practice.
