    Woodsmoke

    In Todd Turner’s Woodsmoke (2014) memory is a potent force at work. His ability to delight and disturb, often within the one line, gives these poems a vibrant, edgy quality that leaves us with a sense of heightened expectancy and urgency.

    Thorn

    Todd Turner’s Thorn (2019) mines the relationship between the earth and the things which populate it, musing on their motives and daily moves. Thorn is a welcome reminder that despite chaos some things go on, perhaps without fanfare or seeming purpose, but steadily and beautifully.

    Breathwork

    Breathwork (2026) is as masterful as it is resonant with the hard-won wisdom of a poet deeply attuned to the shaping forces of grief, trauma and suffering and to the corrective powers of love and belonging.
