One of the most extraordinary young voices in world poetry, this debut pamphlet by Bie Yining brings together seven of her early sequences and long poems. Producing texts of a remarkable complexity and intensity while still in her late teens, this slim volume of texts speaks, in all it’s aberration and play, to hope for a new generation of inter-cultural writers. SJ Fowler

“Kingston University brings together students from all over the world, from as wide a range of backgrounds and cultures as can be found in the UK. It creates a community that cross pollinates influences and ideas, and this is inevitably reflected in the work the students create. The university does not get enough credit for this – it is, I have seen, a vibrant, harmonious environment where originality and difference can be transformed into exciting and innovative expression. The students are hungry for that which is innovative, that which allows them to express the true size and complexity of their experience and their community at the university. This series of poetry pamphlets reflects that. The work is utterly contemporary, it is exciting and energetic. It is, I hope, the best kind of representation of what Kingston University stands for – intelligent, unique and various in its character.” Series editor, SJ Fowler
“Moral cavity is the result of looking at the otherwise regular parts of life until they warp in on themselves. It is a test on how far away something can get while still maintaining its identity and a measurement of how long it takes to make the ordinary unrecognisable. Moral cavity reflects on perspective and definition through a collection of visual and textual poetry that mirror the feeling of a growing bed of bacteria in the back of your mouth, except there is no bacteria and there is no mouth, just you.”

Dream Red, the debut publication from poet Nina Fidry, is a remarkable collection of concrete and projective poems filled with abstract imagery and multi-lingual play. Experimenting with space, composition, font, text-size and mathematics, these remarkable poems create a series of elegant divisions, forcing the reader to think of what could be and/ or what they are there for.

Ramblings External by Marcia Knight-Latter externalises the unfiltered thought behind everyday experiences. The pamphlet explores space and time as the poet manipulates an internal narrative during regular activities by focusing predominantly on the distractions that come from within the thinking process, leading to more abstract connections. The reader receives an intentional delivery of information through careful formatting which allows for the extension of thought, to explore how a thought is visualised and heard. Marcia combines simple language with contextualised contractions and lyrical abstractions to produce intense imagery and a disjointed aesthetic.
Marcia Knight-Latter is a poet and writer, currently studying Creative Writing with Psychology at Kingston University.

Miscellaneous by Julia Rose Lewis is a poem about trying to work things out between the poet and Nantucket Island as their love is old and full of flaws. This poem asks if it is possible to have a mutually healthy relationship between a human and an island. It employs Dr Seuss’s Green Eggs and Ham as a source text to explore the role of negation in this conversation. The alternating 5-7 syllable counts of the lines suggest the wavering voice of the narrator or more simply the waves striking the island.
Julia Rose Lewis is the author of Phenomenology of the Feral (KFS 2017) and co-author with James Miller of Strays (HVTN 2017). Miscellaneous is her fifth pamphlet after: Zeroing Event (Zarf 2016), Exhalation Halves Lambda (FLP 2017), How to Hypnotize a Lobster (2018), and Archeology and the Beast (Luminous Press 2018).

Over 200 nursing students from Kingston University and St George’s University of London have tapped into their creative juices to produce inspirational writing on the 2018 International Nurses’ Day theme ‘A Voice to Lead: Health is a Human Right’.
Visiting Professor Karen Norman introduced this year’s Art of Caring writing competition by inviting participants to create an ‘aphorism’ on the IND theme. An ‘aphorism’ historically refers to the medical rules written by Hippocrates. Nowadays, it’s defined as ‘a concise expression of doctrine or principle of any generally accepted truth conveyed in a pithy, memorable statement.’ A good example is Florence Nightingale’s famous aphorism: ‘Hospitals should do the sick no harm.’ Here we present 27 written works chosen by the Kingston University Nursing Society in this special chapbook.
