Some things matter

Since their first publication in 2012, James Nash's sonnets have delighted thousands of poetry readers and listeners across the globe. Philosophical, satirical, warm and bittersweet, the sixty-three poem sequence spans the full breadth of the human experience; and can be enjoyed afresh in this second edition, which includes a handful of new sonnets, as heard on BBC Radio 3 in 2014. James Nash is a writer and long-term resident of Leeds. His poems appear in Enitharmon's Branch-lines: Edward Thomas and Contemporary Poetry anthology (2007), and his short stories in Four Fathers (Route, 2006). An ebook, A Bit of an Ice Breaker: Selected and Uncollected Poems, was published by Valley Press in April 2012.
