Nigel Bird was the co-editor of 'the Rue Bella' magazine between 1998 and 2003. During that time, the magazine gained a reputation for being at the cutting edge of the poetry world. Not only did it feature the work of some of the worlds finest poets, but it provided a window for the words of a huge number of fledgling talents. Bird himself went on to become a prize-winner in the Academi poetry competition and his work appeared alongside one of his favourites, Seamus Heaney, in the Reader Magazine in 2009. This is a collection of poems from over those years, as well as a few more recent editions. Written from the heart it is, in turn, beautiful, crafty, unhinged and entertaining.
