Hangman's Acre - Janet Sutherland

Janet Sutherland, who is featured on the Profiles section of www.polyscriptum.com, has just published her second volume of poetry. Hangman's Acre is published by Shearsman Books and the cover image is by local Lewes artist Peter Messer. Janet did a reading from Hangman's Acre and her first volume Burning The Heartwood at the Lewes Little Theatre last Sunday, a well-attended event reflecting the interest in her work. Polyscriptum expect to be reviewing the new volume in due course.

I've just relaunched www.polyscriptum.com after a gap of several years. The new site is still under construction but is much more focussed on poetry in other languages and translations. We still have a core of good poetry in English mainly from local Lewes poets. I will be updating this Blog from time to time with news about readings and other events, and also inviting comment from others with access to the website.
